The Coming of Age Wars

The Coming of Age Wars - By Mark Steyn - The Corner - National Review Online
It’s asking a lot of a fraying societal fabric to expect young Hispanics to shoulder the ever greater entitlement costs of elderly whites and blacks (as in the American southwest) or young Muslims of elderly French and Germans (as in Europe).
In the face-off between a beleaguered private sector and the public unions whose lavish benefits they pay for, Big Labor’s muscle holds certain advantages.
That doesn’t apply in the looming showdown between youth and geezers.
