This article focuses on the importance of inequality and the problems behind it.

College is certainly worth the cost, but that at present it is saddling poor and middle-class students with student debt is actually preventing them from participating in the wealth-building processes that previous generations have enjoyed."

It describes how students can get discouraged to attend college simply because they are unable to pay off the college fees. This is important because it shows that with a growing middle class, the ability to have a good college education can decrease.
