this “bridge into the 21st century” is made up of the carcasses of our children, their hopes and dreams priced out of reach by OUR foolhardiness, their statuses little more them mere slaves to the government’s thunderous appetites.

“this “bridge into the 21st century” is made up of the carcasses of our children, their hopes and dreams priced out of reach by OUR foolhardiness, their statuses little more them mere slaves to the government’s thunderous appetites.”

I wonder how many of the youth who put Obama into office will be feeling about their votes 40 or 50 years from now. I fear that the bridge Obama has in mind is keeping the auto companies afloat until he has enacted a national health plan that effectively transfers a sizable portion of employee and retiree health benefits onto the backs of taxpayers. Unlike most large businesses, which have tended to oppose or be neutral towards national health insurance, the auto companies and UAW have been championing NHI since
the 1960’s. Why do you think they keep sending John Dingell back to Congress?

Its funny you say that... as a young person (in my 20’s) I have been so tempted for a while now to write a book about how the death of responsibility at the hands of the most selfish generation (baby boomers) has led to a destruction of the future. How most (obviously not all) of them use “think of the children” as just a BS argument to get more of their own selfish needs fulfilled. It stands in stark contrast to the generation before them who withstood a great depression and fought in WWII and Korea.
