I’ve been wondering, it is probably wishful thinking, if the youngsters realize they were lied to by obozo, made a bad choice, are more conservative than the old hippies, are sobered by the HUGE debt and less bright future they may face.
My experience though is that they don’t accept criticism, failure or correction very well. Even when it is offered constructively.
I think they realize that 1/3 of them are not here because they were aborted. I think they realize that the preceeding generation (of which I am a member) not only lied to them, but acted in the most selfishly immoral manner possible and passed the consequences of that to their generation. Ironically, as we become “old and in the way”, it may come back around in ways the “Boomers” won’t like much.
