Our government is run by those with experience, and with experience, comes cynicism. If you ask 18-30 year olds, nearly all would believe that Health Care should be a universal right to all those residing in America. The details of the policies would come second to the fundamental rights of the individual.
The point being... do you believe our nation would be better served by Idealistic Youths making decisions on directing policy or the current system, where those with Experience who have grown Cynical after seeing policy debates and government function for decades, finally are in a situation to make the fundamental decisions.
