because you will all get where we are today. You too are paying into MediCare and Social Security and I know for a fact you will want it to be there when you do need it.

The politicians are talking about your generation; it seems to me that the republicans are trying to screw the youth on college loans, etc., dumping trillions of debt on you guys, trying to undo environmental protections for the world you and your children will live in, talking about reinstituting a draft to fight wrongheaded wars. We should not need to remind you that this is all going to affect your future. I have personally argued with friends' kids who told me "I don't vote because it doesn't matter." That is one of the saddest things I've ever heard. IT DOES MATTER. To us "oldies" and to you guys. We are all in this together!!
