What I said was that I knew you would LIKELY feel as you did. That is nothing personal but based on my insight into how the ego reacts to things with most people having way way too much ego. What you call backtracking was me trying to tell you that the important point you made, in my opinion, was not that they don't care about health care but that they too seldom show up to vote to support it and that the reason they don't is ingrained in our political system. Ideology is based on conditioning and our system if full of it with one group no better or worse than any other contrary to your claim it's old people's fault. What I admit to is indifference to that fact that I might offend your ego.
As I said, the focus of attention, in my opinion, ought to be that young people don't vote which means that the old people who realize why they don't should do more to tell them such behavior is self defeating. You, yourself, however, can just stick with blaming old people as a group if you want to.
And yet here I am doing what I can to help you past that perception. Willing to try, indifferent to success.
I can do so but that does not guarantee you will agree since what I know is based on experiences you may or may not have had. You can't put an old head on young shoulders, if you know what I mean.
Humanity is asleep living upside down and backward to reality. We are caught in the delusion of Maya if I have my Indian based insight into this correct. We are trapped in the illusion of good and evil when they in fact do not exist. The human capacity to use language created the ability to think symbolically, to be able to connect emotional content to words related to experience. We were conditioned in this way by being put down as children to see ourselves as sinful when we acted against group imposed norms, norms that are the product of duality and have no fundamental reality but the only reality we now know.
In short we are all trapped by and doomed to fall under the sway of thought which is fear which is hate, one generation programming the next. Generations unborn will be blaming you for the ills we presently create. And all because we are afraid to challenge our programming, to struggle to awaken because it will take us back to memories where we died psychic deaths in order to survive the torment of our programming. We are all victims of outrageous torture we are terrified to remember.
As to young people opposing health care. I mentioned that the points made by Jackalas are not strange to my ears. Do you remember when Obama care first passed. There was originally an individual mandate that you were required to pay that was very unpopular and was deemed illegal. The word at the time as I remember was that it was also very unpopular among the young because they didn't see themselves as needing healthcare and were forced to pay for somebody else. The following is not broken down by age so I am going from what I remember coming from young people circa 2016.
