Young people love socialism because it sounds so romantic (you know...we'll all work together collectively for the good of mankind...sharing all our money...singing as we go).

Mature people hate it because they know it's full of empty promises and, in the end, just doesn't work.

I think that waas how it worked in the past; now young people will embrace socialism because many realize they have no economic future. They look at what the McJobs today will provide (not much), and they want more; if you told them they were taking it from other peoples’ paychecks they wouldn’t bat an eye.
