This is a case of things must get better before they get worse… Basic right in america have been declining for years now. And now its happening all at once.

The question is how bad does it have to get before the average Americans start to unite and fight back against this billionaire friendly legislation.

This country started by revolting over taxes on tea.

As a college student in the past there have been few times when I found it worth it to purchase the course text book. The quality of the text books themselves have also degraded over time which usually end up being a copy and paste from the previous year with different problems.

The average college student must also juggle 4 to 5 rigorous classes that each demand 3 to 4 hours of homework in a 24 hour day. It makes it very difficult to spend more than the bare minimum on any particular concept if you want to stay a float.

I do agree that the lack of attention span the writer points out is a real problem. I have seen few people even have the ability to read a textbook cover to cover.
