National College Application Month, Obama Middle Class Claims
President Barack Obama issued a proclamation for National College Application Month, framing a college degree as the "surest ticket to the middle class." The hosts criticize this rhetoric, arguing that it leads to financial slavery through massive student debt. They reference the "military-industrial-academic complex" and a previous Obama statement about "just getting by" being the American dream.
