What happens when you turn public education over to a gang of anti-American unionista communist sympathizers? You get a generation of kids who've forsaken everything that made America great.
Members of the huge millennial generation are less religious, less likely to call themselves "patriotic" and significantly more liberal than older generations, new research shows.
They've turned their backs on God, America, and liberty. Yeah, that's a trifecta of #win, isn't it?
What do they believe in? Big Government. And lots of it.
Although adults aged 18-33 are much more likely to call themselves political independents than their elders are, they are also far more likely to vote Democratic. Their views favoring activist government, as well as their stands on social issues such as gay rights, reinforce that voting behavior, an extensive study by the Pew Research Center shows.
We've beget a nation of slackers who hate us and love the omnipresent state. At least until it turns on them.
Just more than half of millennials say they favor a "bigger government providing more services" rather than a smaller government — a polling question used for years as an index of people's attitudes toward government's role.
They've been spoon-fed decades of progressive political mush by agents of the Democratic party. So it's no wonder they vote Democrat and they're too smug and self-absorbed to bother with traditional virtues like marriage and family.
A significantly smaller share of millennials have married than among older generations at this stage of their lives. Only about one in four millennials have wed, compared with more than one-third of Generation X when they were in their 20s and 30s, and nearly half of the baby boomers.
That decline in marriage rates may reflect the lessened attachment that members of the generation have to other institutions, such as organized religion or nationalism. Almost three in 10 say they are religiously unaffiliated, nearly twice the share among baby boomers. Just less than half of millennials say that "patriotic" describes them well, in comparison with two-thirds to three-quarters of older generations.
We are witnessing the undoing of America. The rollback of everything our Founding Fathers believed in, fought for, and died defending. It was once said that the Sixties were the "me" generation. Well, let me say that Millennials are the "gimme" generation. They acknowledge no power higher than government, and they look for salvation in bureaucracy rather than in heaven. Collectivism is their watchword. Ask not what you can do for your country, expect your country to do everything for you.
A part of me doesn't want to believe this is the America my daughter will
inherit. But sadly I see the signs all around me. And it's depressing as hell.
