There will be no more Republicans

Name: Anonymous 2011-09-17 3:21

FACT: The 20-30 age range votes Democrat at a rate of 2:1.
FACT: Upon aging very few start voting Republican, as Republicans theorized they would do upon paying taxes.

Conservatism is dead. If the 20-30 age range decided the 2008 election, only 3 states would have been Republican majority (Alaska, Texas, and some minor state that doesn't matter). In the 18-22 age range 1 in 4 people have no belief in a deity; Religion is dieing with it.

All while Republicans talk of fixing this issue by becoming more open minded and tolerant, yet they still promote a ban on gay marriage, Cannabis prohibition with even greater punishments that would effect youth the most, worsening punishments for crimes primarily committed by youth (under-age drinking, drug use, misbehaving in school, etc). They are alienating the youth. All of this seems to be in a feeble attempt to create a generation of felons, with the more traditionalist Republican children making up a minority of those felons, in an attempt to rob the Democratic majority of most of their voting power.

Congress talks of taking care of the next generation, yet nearly every action they take is opposed by the next generation.

Soon, these conservatives will witness their empire crumble. Cannabis will be smoked in their face, the power of the police will be reduced, socialist policies will be passed, the Republicans will be a fringe party while the socialist party starts to field some seats in congress, the ties Religion has with the US will be severed, no more "in god we trust" or "one nation under god", the military will be drastically cut in size, textbooks used in public  schools will speak of the incompetence of the current government, gays will be married, etc.

The only drawback is that the new generation won't be conservative enough to execute the current politicians for high treason (what they like to call 'lobbying').

More job losses come from productivity than from outsourcing. As we become more efficient we need less workers.

As to the rest of your post - no one outside the lunatic fringe could have predicted the current state of the Republican Party. Things have changed a lot and they will continue to change. This is not the same party that started the Iraq War. It's not the party of Reagan. Did you watch the CNN / Tea Party Express debate? It was held in the Reagan library but Reagan wouldn't have fit in at all.

The new Republican Party is more focused on individual liberties. They're rekindling the American Dream. The idea is that with less regulations even you can start a small business and become successful. Whether Republican ideas will actually work is debatable - I personally think they won't. However these ideas are very palatable to young people. They want change and the Republican Party that is developing before our eyes promises it.
