What a bunch of young socialists

[the_oco]

Im disgusted to be in the same age bracket as these kids at MTV. They want the government to give them everything.

I'm in exactly the same position... you think the government should pay for birth control? What??!

 

[Acidlump]

People who want the poor to get help, but don't want to do it themselves.

 

[Malakai0]

No they just see less and less of their paychecks every week and want the government to help out. We were taught in school that's what government is there for.

They don't realize the government is the problem and not the solution. That's the big lie of empire =)

 

[LionHeart87]

exactly, blame government run education on why the youth like big government. they are practically brainwashed into loving socialism.

 

[Ogren]

The republican party has turned away so many people. That young people are now choosing the lesser of two evils.

 

[Malakai0]

It was hard to break away from it trust me. Wow obama is almost a socialist eh

Dont worry, the baby boomer generation has beat them to it getting everything out of the government. There wont be anything left to give them except a lifetime of more debt and inflation as USA is flat broke and it will soon be the government will take everything from them.

Man that is scary. It's everywhere, a lot of people I know around my age are for Obama....I'm happy to say I don't want a handout.

 

[devil21]

It's all about following the "hip candidate". The issues don't really mean that much to that group of kids. The proof is that Obama sits there and says restoring Habeus Corpus yet he voted FOR the Patriot Act and the Military Commissions Act. DO YOUR HOMEWORK KIDS!

It is truly terrifying. This generation growing up is so used to the warfare/welfare state that showing them true liberty makes them recoil in horror. Our young people are becoming...socialists

 

[JHUK]

Theres a saying "If you are not a socialist when young, you have no heart. If you are still a socialist when old, you have no head."

Of course there are young people who understand free markets, but you can't really blame those who don't.

 

[Gimme Some Truth]

Young people tend to be idealistic in a socialistic way.

When I was 15-18 I was very much the same way.

Very well stated. Kids grow up with a sense of entitlement. They want the handout, fear their government, and have been conditioned to accept tyrrany.

Oh I don't know about less and less from their paychecks...first you have to have a paycheck...
Todays kids expect, almost demand that they go to college, on their parents, or the Govts dime, extending their childhood for another 4 years. What happened to being 18, you're responsible for yourself, and your bills? This doesn't happen anymore, as many remain in their parents house until....indefinitely.
I am not saying this is true of all young people, but it certainly is more so, than when I was that age.

 

[homah]

yay a $10 billion fund to stabilize the housing market...that's like good and stuff because people get to keep their houses...i'm totally voting for obama, he's cool and friendly.

 

[greeksta59]

[icon124]

Yeah, the corresponding polls came up before the questions were even asked.
