I feel sorry for kids like him.

They've spent 12 years or more in re-education facilities; they've been told they're incompetent to survive without 'society's aid and support; they've internalized the petty rules and self-critical political correctness slogans of the authorities, and resent that fact.

The only hope we freedomites have is that a critical mass of young people see things more or less our way. And sooner rather than later.

It's hard to assess the likelihood of that. The Republican Party fighting for the de-criminalizing of pot would help; young people detest hypocrisy--that should be our strongest ally!

Too many Republicans are secret Rooseveltians; they have conceded moral 'high ground' regarding a kind of native American socialism to the mobocrats on the left.

In any event, one can only pity this poor fatherless child, abandoned to the wolves of the state at an early age.

I am only 19 years old. I think most of the young socialists won't get anwywhere in life (unless they become hollywood stars) due to their inherent belief that someone else should provide for them rather than they provide for themselves. So I think things will work thenmsleves out.

And about native american type socialism: I think what they had going was a good thing. It was socialism. But it wasn't like the modern idea of socialism. They were like a big family, caring about eachother and providing for the good of the tribe. But they only did it because they cared about eachother. Someone shares with another person out of the goodness of their heart. You can't force kindness by an oppressive government. It just doesn't work; what it really is is theft in disguise. In the indian tribes if you became a bum and blew all your cowhides on peacepipes then you'd be kicked out of the tribe. But today in modern socialism if you become a bum you get more money! If someone wants to be in a socialist community, then I say they should start a family, but ironically enough the left is anti-family.
