hahaha The young people voting. Knee slapper
They are the ones most likely to be disenchanted with Republican pols.
The oldest left-right divide ever is between creditors (Right) and debtors (Left).
As I went through the selection of channels on satellite radio I found that Patriot Radio (right-wing talk) had much advertising of gold as an inflationary hedge. In contrast, America Left (no question on its identity) had much advertising of debt-relief services.
Creditors want to get their "pound of flesh" out of debtors and want it to hurt through deflationary policies. Debtors want inflationary activities that make debt easier to pay back. Young adults are faring badly in a recession with few high-paying jobs and huge debt for student loans. Creditors want debtors to become their serfs; debtors resist that in their political choices.
Conservatives would be wise to get people to become savers and bond-holders, but that requires that working people have solid incomes.
