Yes, the debt is one of the most important issues that we have to face, but everything matters, including social issues. Resistance 44 addresses ALL of the problems we face, including social issues. The current administration that we have is destroying all aspects of life.

Yes, you are correct, and let me be more precise in what I meant, because my post wasn't too good now that I look at it.

Politicians, especially Democrats, view the young voters and especially college age voters in a certain demeaning way. They feel that appealing to the sex,drugs, and rock and roll culture, is a big win for them, like they think everyone wants to relive the 60's and that will satisfy you and get you to vote for them.

But college age voters need to be fully aware that Nancy Pelosi is in her 70s, and she will probably not live to see the full effects of her policies on America. She can spend us into bankruptcy and not care a bit. You, however, will be dealing with the aftermath of this bubble and national debt for most of the rest of your adult working life. Young people cannot get distracted by voting for the "cool" president when their whole lives are at stake right now.

When I mean that the debt is everything, here is an example, the student loan bubble. Yes, the student loan bubble is terrible, and will hurt your generation for decades. Politicians will promise quick answers, like bailing out the students. But all that does is raises the government debt. And who will then pay the government debt? Not the boomers, they are on their way out. It is still you, paying off the student debt, now denominated in government bonds. Everything goes back to the debt now.

I am a big social issues conservative, but the best way to fight for social issues right now is through fighting the debt, which is funding the fight against our social issues.
