"Millennials' Political Views Don't Make Any Sense"

This pretty much summed the article up for me, "Forty-two percent of Millennials think socialism is preferable to capitalism, but only 16 percent of Millennials could accurately define socialism in the survey."

Socialism is like social networking? Right??

I have to agree with this. This forum is rather laughable sometimes with the generalizations so long as they don't apply to the posters therein.

Carry on.

The first part is a lie, the second part is true because it means the person hasn't learned one damn thing from their life experience.

I've never been liberal but I was much more altruistic when I was younger. Now that I'm older I've learned that when I give people things they think they're entitled to my generosity.

I agree. Ive never thought about being a liberal in all my life. It's a gross generalization and we know how we feel about those. However, I think it does hit on why more young people vote democrat. The left pulls on the heart strings, by design. Obama's assault on college campus's to get them to vote was genius.

Absolutely correct.

The left is all about emotion and irrational thought, right up to the point where they starve the useless idiots to death....after they've murdered the people like us for being enemies of the state.

The shit show that is the millennial generation is a direct representation of our public school system, who's running it, and how they are running it. It's no longer a matter of incompetence, it is deliberate. IMHO I believe they are deliberately dumbing down the population.

You hit the nail squarely on the head.

Yes they are.

This is why the education curriculum should not be nationalized. A national school system is an asset only to the 'crats, it isn't good for students or teachers.

Speaking of millennials...

Just keep pounding the idea that city living in a 135 sq foot box is "awesome".

Now back to your regularly scheduled agenda 21 program...[pileoshit]

I hate about half my generation. The other half chose to serve abroad and some paid the ultimate price.
