A Growing Trend: Young, Liberal and Open to Big Government

This is excellent news. For far too long I've felt young people have only focused on social issues and been completely ignorant about the need for more progressive policies regarding social justice on economic issues.

Yep, when a generation thinks the gov't is the solution, and not the problem, that is a country going down the tubes.

Yes, because you guys have done a bag-up job of selling the GOP with its anti-intellectualism, racism, sexism, generally pre-historic attitudes towards society and then you sit here with your thumb up your ass and wonder why young people aren't signing up left and right.

What at mystery.

Meanwhile, every loser issue/stance that cost you the November election you've not only retained, you've doubled down on.

Benghazi anyone?

And yet the country is going "down the tubes" because the completely decomposing GOP isn't attracting new members.

You still don't get it. But hey: blame everybody else! It's the liberal way!

[J.K. Gregg]

Oh look, Indy came in and introduced the GOP into the topic. I didn't see that one coming.

[dontworrybehappy]

My God, when has the gov't solved any problem in a timely cost effective manner? They can't even shove a piece of paper into my mailbox and make a profit, why the hell would I put them in charge of anything, especially my healthcare?

And remember guys, Indy is "middle of the road." I guess that road runs right through the middle of San Francisco!

im interested to know if and how many of these under 30 voters have jobs or are still living with their parents. i think it is becoming more common for kids to stay home and go to school for a lot longer than they used to (a friend of mine for example who has a degree, is 25 and still living at home and VERY left), and so their views on social issues differ because they are not getting the chunks taken out of their check and still suckling off their mothers boob and have no idea what personal responsibility is or responsibility at all for that matter. people under 30 are generally stupid and shouldn't be allowed to vote...unless they are smart like i am
