KLP - terrific perspective. Thanks

The young people all want to feel as if they too can achieve what they see around them.

Problem is, they want to do it NOW. They are much more impatient than we were about the length of time it took to achieve even a modicum of wealth.

Also, if this is truly what may be happening, then of course, they don't realize the folly of socialism. These young people grew up with more material goods than any others in history, but today, they want those goods, and most can't afford them. They pay little taxes now. So what difference does socialism make to them....? None, as far as they are concerned....
