It's time to sit down with our kids that are just on their way to college, those in college and those just graduating.

It is time to tell them that they to will age and become old like us someday and that they are now being targeted for shouldering more and more of the burden of their health costs as they age. Show them how the Repugs are going to lay the burden down on them and tell them that then need to get involved now - politically - to prevent that from happening.

We need to get the youth of our country to realize what the Repugs are trying to do. We need to make them activists. We need to get them to the ballot box and make their votes count. We need to show them how the Repugs are dismantling this country - piece by piece.

They need to understand that everything that makes this country great is under siege by the Repugs. They need to understand that their future employment opportunities are under siege. They need to understand that this country's infrastructure is under siege. That the food we eat and water we drink is under siege by the Repugs.

And let your daughters know that the Repugs want to make all the decisions for their bodies.

Our children need to know that the Repugs are trying to enslave them and their futures and that they will become slaves of the Corporations and the uber wealthy.

We need to awake the youth of our nation. They need to know that the powers at be want them to fight their political and financial wars - but that they will not receive the benefits derived from their service. We need to let them know that they are being groomed to serve the elite.

I watch with amazement what the Repugs are doing to this country. They have kids too. Don't they realize what they are setting up for their own children? Don't they care?

If we - the elder generation - can't stop this onslaught to our existence - maybe we can get our kids to take on the mission.
