The commodification of education

from Proletarian Radio Hosted by The Communists

Lalkar writers | 1 September 2026 Whether they leave university indebted and desperate for secure employment or bypass university altogether and find themselves compelled to take whatever work and training is available, the direction of travel for working-class youth is becoming increasingly clear. Capital requires cheap workers in peacetime and soldiers in wartime, and our children are being prepared to provide both. The winners are the corporate financiers, rinsing the system and students for every penny. The losers are the working-class kids subjected to a lifetime of debt peonage alongside ever-diminishing employment prospects. ----------------------------------------------- Subscribe! Donate!
