I am not young by any means, but to say that old people made everything that is right about this country and the young started all this downhill in 2008 is a crock. Who voted for FDR, LBJ, Carter, Clinton, etc.?
There are many old people on the government teat and they are not willing to give it up, saying that they deserve it.
See what happens when broad stereotypes are made?
There are conservatives and liberals in every age group.
