Let's face facts. Young people are essentially ignorant on the subjects that should be important to them, on the subjects that will determined their standards of living 20 or 30 or 50 years from now. Not all of them, of course -- but the vast majority have no idea what a trillion dollars is, let alone that we would need $100 Trillion or more today to maintain everyone's standard of living going forward. And they certainly don't comprehend that Obama has worked against, not for, their interests. It isn't ALL their fault, because the media was complicit, and Obama's campaign was excellent at shouting down the competition. I contrast this condition with that of the aged liberal who supports Obama on an ideological basis. I tend to blame that on stupidity (and I have a number of good friends & relatives in this category) as adults should have had enough interest to get up to speed.
