Student loans are an excellent example of how the modern lending
system manifests ancient modes of control. In the United States, long
before the modern student loan, for the promise of prosperity thousands
of individuals came to the New World as indentured servants. Once they
arrived in ‘America,’ ‘twas their job to work to pay off their sail
across the pond, an endeavor which lasted years and a decision most
young men did not make for themselves. Instead, their fathers worked out
the terms and signed the legal papers, handing custodianship of son
over to ship captain. Sound familiar?

As the student debt burden has exploded in this 21st century, the
“century of change,” silver has increased its price level by a similar
percentage. With student debt continuing to spiral, the silver price
rise seems determined to persist. In the coming years, as this student
debt transforms the life of the college grad in his and her professional
dealings and personal lives, interest in silver as a hedge against
austerity will increase. With student debt over $1 trillion already,
could it be a source of future, soaring silver demand in the United
States? That is, if it is not already.
