Get them into a debate on the merits of, say, $15/hour and they exhaust their "reasons" after one or two specious and platitudinous talking points, about how they "feel" it is "fair" and how much they "care" for the people they will put out of work. I fear that the only thing that will set them straight is a harsh dose of reality that will come too late for the rest of us. jerrye92002https://www.blogger.com/profile/01858692298982859775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061582353562134652.post-16738482345490675952018-11-17T18:44:16.832-08:002018-11-17T18:44:16.832-08:00Problem is, the young have no sense of reality.

For example, Ocasio what's-her-face is constantly saying "we can pay for" Medicare-for-all when we cannot even "pay for" Medicare for those already on it.

We will need to install a new blue-ribbon panel of conservative experts to decide which sick Americans deserve their current healthcare coverage and which should be sent to A Farm Upstate in order to relieve the burden on taxpayers OR move in with their millennial children. <br />Did you know that in other countries, the infirm and the elderly are driven up into the mountains and abandoned there, when their families can no longer care for them? <br />Something we might want to consider, Rand Paul will say while pointing to a large, alarming-looking chart.<br />And really now, this whole business of feeding the poor rather than leaving them to starve on the streets feels a wee bit too Europe, the deficit hawks will sniff.<br />The millennials will have a few tough pills to swallow as they take the reigns of local and national government.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04401746259487330914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061582353562134652.post-45902390441753369422018-11-17T16:37:40.762-08:002018-11-17T16:37:40.762-08:00If the GOP founders, we should replace it.
