The Washington Examiner’s Jim Antle has written a comprehensive piece about the Democrats’ war on youth. Antle notes that politicians and pundits on the right have been pointing out ways in which Democrats’ policies hurt young people.
Jeb Bush, for example, told the Washington Examiner on the campaign trail in New Hampshire that leaders need to “make sure the next generation isn’t saddled with all of our contingent liabilities on their backs.”
Marco Rubio, meanwhile, has talked about the need for generational change. “The world is different than it was five years ago, not to mention 50 or 60 years ago,” when programs such as Medicare and Social Security were designed, he said in Iowa.

Antle also notes the ages of leaders of each parties, and that Republican leaders from Rubio to Speaker Paul Ryan are substantially younger than their Democratic counterparts.
