Eating Our Young
But left out of this focus on supposed victim groups is the one truly targeted cohort — the young. Despite the Obama-era hype, we are not suffering new outbreaks of racism. Wendy Davis is not the poster girl for a resurgent misogyny. There is no epidemic of homophobia. Instead, if this administration’s policies are any guide, we are witnessing a pandemic of ephebiphobia — an utter disregard for young people. - -Works and Days

Your Say
It is proper to take money from the young.
The young are inexperienced suckers.
It is immoral to let a sucker keep his money. (American Gambler Canada Bill Jones)

Disregard for young people?
As opposed to what, regard? By whom?
For better'n 30 years you hear nothing but *for the children* all over the media.
Our son is young, and his mother and I regard him highly, that is our job. Everyone else gets to leave him alone and regard their own kids. It's a full time job. If you are doing your job properly you don't have the time to stick your nose into mine. Now go get busy.
Onward.
