are beginning to understand that our most revered safety net programs are actually socialist, democratically approved. It drives the Repugs crazy, thus the attempts to turn Social Security over to the banksters, for one. A younger generation, growing up in college debt with few jobs available, are learning fast. My own (Sixties) generation were admittedly a little overwrought, on issues other than the Viet Nam war. Otherwise our futures were pretty secure. The jobs were out there, with or without a college education. Most of our parents could, at least afford basic college tuition or help with technical schooling, Not so much these days. We're getting near a scary future for a second generation since "times were good." Today's kids haven't the security that "Sixties" kids had behind them, yet honestly need some revolution. "Occupy Wall Street?" where did it go?

There are a few people out there that would/WANT to believe this garbage, they wouldn't vote for a Democrat ANYWAY. Its a waste of money promoting this nonsense. But hey, let them waste it.
