It might be better to ask why these young people feel so powerless and have completely given up on our existing form of government. The prevailing mood here seems to be “just tear it all down and start over” so seemingly the belief is that it simple can’t be any worse that what we have now.

Anybody with a few years of real-life experience knows for a fact that these dreamers are out of effing minds in believing things wouldn’t be worse (far worse) if you simply tore down the government, but hey, at least they have passion…

Hmm…
no social security= starving senior citizens and tens of millions of more foreclosures
no medicaid= sick children in poverty with no medical coverage at all
no medicare= no doctors care for seniors, no hospital coverage for seniors, no drug coverage or support for seniors with conditions like diabetes or incontinence or cancer or…or…or…
No student loans
No Pell grants
etc
etc
etc…
(I could list shit all day long (public schools, highway funds, the E.P.A.) that only a national government is possible of supporting.)
