  2. Generation Debt By Anya Kamenetz Why is now a terrible time to be young?

  3. Why is this important to me? • This is important to me because many teenagers between the ages of twenty and thirty years of age have been robbed of their earnings and funds. The nation has forgotten its children, not helping students pay their education.

  4. What is my response to it? • My response is yes, Ido agree with the author in supporting the students. Today’s youthare facing economic problems in jobs without pension or health care coverage. The biggest problem that we, are facing is paying for college. Financial support that has helped students isless often available with grant money and has compelled more students to take out loans.

  5. What is the author saying? • The author is saying that the time we are living in now is a very hard time in which to live. The standard pay that this generation is making is not enough to provide us with a decent standard of living.

  6. What did Isay in mytyped book report ? • Young Americans are being ground down by low wages, high taxes, and huge student loans, not to mention the impending retirement. Students are leaving college in debt. The majority of the college students that graduate are already in debt for around $17,600 to$23,000.
