Demographics is always interesting....

(The Baby Boom certainly changed the face of America and the world... and now that the Baby Boom is moving off the stage - albeit reluctantly! <g> - I expect that a force as large as "50 million Millennials" will probably make a mark for a long time to come as well....)

This reflects upon what I was saying the other day... although the young generation is much more 'liberal' on social matters (no "culture wars" for them!) then the oldest generation, that does not mean that they ain't plenty 'conservative' when it comes to the idea of running deficits!

After all: any deficits run today would be THEIR BURDEN in coming years!
