It's not a bad way to try and skip a generation that seems to be skewing left, however, and keep power in the hands of the boomer generation. "Sorry, kids, I know you weren't old enough to vote for this before, but we agreed that we wouldn't do it again for a generation."
- brigandish 4y agoWould those kids not get a vote in 20 years? Those who are young tend to skew left anyway. As a Danish friend once told me "If you're young and you don't vote left, you have no heart. If you're old and you don't vote right, you have no brains." Ever was it thus.
