Home Truth

Mark Steyn, on the result of "doing it for the children":


Underneath the familiar props of radical chic that hasn't been either radical or chic in half a century, the zombie youth of the Big Sloth movement are a paradox too ludicrous even for the malign alumni of a desultory half-decade of Complacency Studies: they're anarchists for Big Government. Do it for the children, the Democrats like to say. They're the children we did it for, and, if this is the best they can do, they're done for.


The best part is imagining that these folks are going to fund the Social Security payments that so many in my generation say they've "earned."
