Student Loan Debt should be among the highest areas of concern, not just for government, but for the people that are actually leaving college with the debt because they are graduating into an economy that is producing the jobs or wages that justify those levels of debt. America's Millennials are being signed up for endured servitude, often with very little usable skills in workforce.  Today on the show we are talking to Zachary Slayback (co-founder) about Praxis and why his company is the perfect alternative for those who don't fit the mold of 4-6 years of college and tens of thousands of dollars of debt with very few usable real skills, and who instead prefer to learn how to build businesses and learn from those who have already done.    You can find today's show notes at http://NewClassRising.com/102 Hit Me Up on Twitter: @Hector_Avellan
