Nah bro, Its creativity that will pull us out of this. Its the artists, the musicians, the philosophers and the writers that will survive. Itll be us that look at that bill and write our lyrics all over it, turn that grief into art, and fight the system. They can try and tear us down, but it wont succeed. Galileo still looked at the stars through the windows, Bansky still paints, and like them we shall still move forward. “Student loans are destroying the imagination of youth. If there’s a way of a society committing mass suicide, what better way than to take all the youngest, most energetic, creative, joyous people in your society and saddle them with, like $50,000 of debt so they have to be slaves? There goes your music. There goes your culture. There goes everything new that would pop out. And in a way, this is what’s happened to our society. We’re a society that has lost any ability to incorporate the interesting, creative and eccentric people.” — David Graeber
