Nor would he care to learn about it. He seems perfectly happy to stay ignorant/pedantic, self-footnote and declare himself the
expert on his generation. Just as Michael Medved swept in early and claimed himself an expert on the boomers (Class of '65). Medved's living proof you can be part of a generation and share absolutely none of its best traits during your lifetime.

Doesn't Reddit talk about Scrap The Cap, are most milennials really not informed about the easy solution?. This kid is ready to give all his soc sec to Wall Street! And spews the same generational "blame"that the Kochs, Pete Peterson et alios have invested millions
cultivating in young minds.

Why would HuffPo ever employ this obnoxious and creepy right wing little shill?
