“Reagan Is Killing Me,” Gay and Lesbian Freedom Day, San Francisco, California, June 28, 1987. Photo by Saul Bromberger & Sandra Hoover. The first cases of AIDS in the United States were reported in 1981; President Ronald Reagan gave his first address on the subject on May 31, 1987, weeks before Pride celebrations took place across the country. By the end of 1987, over 40,000 people in the United States were dead from HIV/AIDS-related illness. #knowyourhistory (at Market Street San Fancisco)

I try and bring up how he ruined free in state tuition in the name of hippie bashing when he was California’s governor often, but don’t exactly have the biggest platform.
“Worst of all, these students’ sense of the future is constrained by planning for and then paying down their student loans, often for decades. Economists are waking up to the fact that when young Americans enter the workforce burdened with over a trillion dollars in cumulative debt, they become risk averse, unwilling to move, less able to make major purchases, and slower to become homeowners. Not coincidentally, they don’t feel safe enough to register any major protests against the society that’s done this to them.”
Damn.
i am reblogging again because….. fuck ronald reagan forever and ever and ever and ever.
Economists should be adept in their fields, how are they only now realizing that paying off our student debt is a fucking priority over anything else other than food?
Weird, it’s almost like there’s something missing from the study of economics.
