Those out of work should demand total socialism. Direct payments paid to them from the government by the taxpayers as a form of “from those who have to those who have not.”

Karl Marx wrote:
“From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” (German: Jeder nach seinen Fähigkeiten, jedem nach seinen Bedürfnissen). In his 1875 Critique of the Gotha Programme.

Gallup News:
Since 2010, young adults’ positive ratings of socialism have hovered near 50%, while the rate has been consistently near 34% for Gen Xers and near 30% for baby boomers.

The secret sauce of USA political opinion is not age - it is ethnicity.

Young people tend to vote just like their parents, but 5%-10% further to the Left.

More than 50% of the kids who turn 18 and vote this year will be non-white. They vote at least 75% Democrat.

White youngsters are more complex.

About 5%-10% gravitate towards the Libertarian Party.

As they age, they gravitate back to the major parties, but they actually split - around 50-50 - Republican and Democrat, after leaving the Libertarians.

White European Americans - as a group - consistently vote 55%-65% Republican.
