The Pentagon continues to hoard hundreds of billions while our students drown in debt and taxpayers foot the bill for endless war. I have been relentless in pushing our representatives to explain why they prioritize defense contractors over the future of our youth. Their silence is cowardly but it only proves that we are hitting a nerve they desperately want to ignore.

The massive surge in support proves people are finally sick of the military industrial complex bleeding our future dry. We are forcing the politicians to look at the blood money they pour into war while students drown in debt.

WAR IS A RACKET. Stop the spending and fund our schools.
Education should be a right not a debt sentence. Take some cash from the defense budget and fix this mess.
I cant even pay my loans back because the interest is such a scam. Stop blowing up other countries and help us out here at home!
Exactly. Why are we paying for fancy weapons when people are struggling to afford school. Makes no sense.
Ridiculous that we spend so much on bombs while kids are drowning in debt to get a basic degree. Priorities are totally backwards.

Finally someone said it. The military budget is just out of control.
