I second the third comment on this post

It really is the probably the best argument for Medicare I've seen. Of course, please pay attention to the title of the post too. Most of us vote for things and people that are good for us, not just the particular group the blogger is talking about.

An empirical analysis of the above bloggers' analysis. Oh and it makes me pretty embarrassed to be young right now. Though to be fair, maybe reform means fixing Medicare, though I doubt it. I still hold that the big reason, or at least one of the reasons, people in my generation are left of center, is because there hasn't been a real liberal government (other then '92-'94) in this country since Jimmy Carter and the Democrats controlled everything in the late 70s. So, we don't know any better, especially given most of us don't know any history.
