I do believe that a lot of young Obama voters feel that way. And I also believe they don't know much if anything about hard work and sacrifice. My sons both called me around 7 last night for an update on the election. They called me because they were both still working. They were still working because they're doing out of town jobs for their employer. And because they're out of town, they work long hrs....typically putting in 12 - 14 hr days..........so they can come home and be with their families on weekends. They are both so intellectually ahead of their peers when it comes to being successful they make all of them look very useless and insignificant. I just hope this new attitude doesn't discourage them. There is nothing more pitiful than a beaten down mooch.

The really odd thing is that today, most of the big, wealthy companies are either owned by, or headed by people of the Left.... With all the new tech and computer related companies since the 1980's, plus the spinoffs from those, it's a different world than the "big, ole' mean companies of the 1900-1985 world.... And yet, most of our young people world wide love the tech gadgets, and don't forget their special rolled teas, and STBX.... So tell us again...what companies are collecting large amounts of money, and paying their employees low wages for at least the first few years of employment, anyway?
