But that's not a bad thing. It's good if left and right can agree on something. I am NOT "generous" with other people's money- which is what taxation is. I consider it a giant insurance scheme (which I like) and i want everyone taxed more, so we can do the things we want, and keep society from being absolutely cruel- as it is in some countries without safety nets- but I don't want taxes spent in ways that I consider wasteful, or which enrage younger workers. I am not a perfect lefty Koan. I am a mix of beliefs. I really do not fit well in to either side. But you can take some comfort in the fact that young people are not angry enough, and not organized enough, yet, to do what they need to do. But they will be, if old people don't wise up a little.
