They want free $h!t. Read my tagline, it has been the same for years, and is still true.
So the authors asking why truly uneducated, naive young people want a free ride with the benefit of an idealistic ego trip? Hmm...
Beat me to it. Yes. They’re stupid. They’re frankly too stupid to be idiots.
A late cousin of mine was like that. In all political discussions you could easily see he was afraid of the future, and was envious of the rich. This, of course, made him a liberal Democrat.
He was also a devout Catholic—and when I pointed out to him that Envy was one of the seven deadly sins, he didn’t have a good answer. Still it was fascinating how fear and envy automatically pushed him left.
