With social youth movements such as the Beatnik's or the late 60's or Occupy Wall Street, the movement is not so much a portion of society desperate yet capable of expressing that desperation to the rest of society and future generations and evolutions of that society.
These listed movements are only a drop in pool of desperation a subest of society betrayed by a subset of society.
Perhaps the governent of the middle-aged millionaires may gain the support of the middle-class strugglers. And for the pesky youth, transitioning from the dependency of the middle-class struggling family t-o the dependency of government or private commerce to aspire to be a middle-class individual.
Maybe the government will prescribe some thing for the youth that are devoted to their own self-preservation, by empowering those desperate youths who will sell out and accept government funding to support the status quo.
The Americorps, the Navy, the Army, Air Force, Coast Guard, and college itself are attempts at a dependence on government while McDonalds, WalMart, distribution centers, and service jobs are attempts to have our youth dependent on private commerce.
These attempts have been successful in keeping status quo, yet the cost of these youth controlling institutions are beginning to exceed a state treasury's ability to pay.
What does the future hold? By that I mean will there be a cooperation amongst corporations and state to coordinate the management of people? The cooperation of taxation, lobbying, and sponsoring party officials has yet been very successful and has not managed to pique the criticisms of the subsets that are most affected by the collusion. Ironically that subset itself is individually taxed from the services they provide to the corporate body so there limited money may keep them in perpetual poverty while they feed the parasite of government, which in turn subsidizes the "private" sector.
My projection of the future June 2014 shows that of 100% of the ages 18-24, which are 16-22 now will breakdown as follows:
20% will be in college accruing debt which will be at 30,000 average four years with 7% interest.
10% will be supported by a government job either education or force-related.
10% will be comfortable with their parents.
10% will be
20% will be underemployed.
20% will be unemployed.
