After four consecutive years of decline, the Indicator held steady to the prior year at 16 percent, down from 24 percent in 2007, when Fidelity first launched the study. While overall preparedness has declined, a larger percentage of parents &#8212; more than two-thirds (67 percent) &#8212; have begun saving for college costs, compared with 58 percent five years ago.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fidelity.com\/static\/dcle\/InsideFidelity\/images\/csi_nr_graphic.bmp\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A visualization of the United States Debt &#8212; from usdebt.kleptocracy.us From DSC: Though this is the U.S. debt, the ramifications of this affect the entire globe.
