Hope for the future

| | Comments (0) |

A NY TImes/CBS poll found that young Americans between 17 and 29 are much more likely to lean left and are crazy optimists. Gives an old Gen X liberal-lite slacker like myself hope for the future.

Young Americans are more likely than the general public to favor a government-run universal health care insurance system, an open-door policy on immigration and the legalization of gay marriage, according to a New York Times/CBS News/MTV poll. The poll also found that they are more likely to say the war in Iraq is heading to a successful conclusion.
