They're all under 20. God help us.

When I was under 20 I was a brainwashed socialist anti-war idiot just like these. (Well, maybe not that weord). If and when they get out of the university and get real jobs and start paying taxes they will snap out of it, just like I did. I voted for McGovern and then Carter and then I saw the light and voted for Reagan and haven't voted for another demoncrat since.

The only ones who will maintain this socialist commie attitude are the ones who eventually get a job in Government. I was cured of the socialist commie virus the moment I started my own business.

Frankly I think a lot of these guys are just participating because they think its an easy way to meet easy girls and get laid. I suppose if the girls took those masks off their faces the guys would immediately desert the cause, eh?

Wasn't it Francis Fukuyama who said -

"He who is not a liberal when young does not have a Heart.
He who is not a conservative when old does not have a Brain."

Dang!! Guess that makes me all brain and no heart! (Though I used to be pro-abortion when I was a lot younger)

Oh man!! I wish I had saved that newspaper article I read many years ago regarding George McGovern in retirement! The gist of it was this ..... George had taken his retirement nest egg and gone back to his native South Dakota after leaving the Senate. And he went out to the Black Hills region and sunk most of it into a joint venture with a friend that was to be some kind of a resort. You know, some nice profitable little investment that should be guaranteed to keep one's retirement fund in the black for years to come?

Well anyway, there was one snafu after another involving this permit or that permit or this government agency or that required Eco- study (Endangered Species, etc.) to be paid for and endless hoops to jump thru. And the whole thing eventually fell apart. No resort. And not much left of the nest egg by that time. A rueful George said something along these lines -

If I had had any idea of what the cumulative impact of all these laws would be on small businessmen, I would never have voted for them.

Is that Justice, or what? Wish I had the exact quote!!
