I remember being told when I was 15 that I would get more right wing as I got older and earned more money.
15 years later, a Masters in ChemEng and making good money.. I get more and more left leaning every year. 15 year old me was a centrist compared to 30 year old me.
Which is wild as my politics are basically just, whilst governments are given power and money from the people, they have the responsibility to ensure everyone is healthy and educated and using the money given to them by the people to achieve this.
To expand on Healthy that means using revenue generated to provide healthcare, a clean environment with strong regulations on companies that can negatively affect health and ensuring everyone has the freedom to be who they want to be.
Other economic stuff is involved too such as the elimination of private property for use of generating revenue etc. |
Same here. I have a family, make good money, and have only become harder left as I get older. I want the taxes I already pay redirected towards health and education, and a hardened wall of separation between the church and the state.
