"If they can make 51% of eligible voters jealous of the top 1% of wage earners they win elections."

How right you are on getting the word out to our youth or young adults. If they could only know how bad it can be. I remember the late 70's, times were tough (thanks to Carter). I registered Republican in my early 20's and never looked back.

On an encouraging note, a lot of youth and young adults do get it, just not enough.... yet!

Thank goodness for the big tent coalition that the Republicans/conservatives have put together. People that care about taxes + people that are pro-life + people that care about our military (and other issues of course) = a coalition that elects a majority of Republicans. If taxes were the only issue I'm afraid that the demogogues would enjoy at least 60% to 40% margin in most elections because a majority of people would fall into that trap of voting themselves a handout.
