It's part of being young and rebellious: you notice that others have more money and power than you, and you dream about reshaping the world political system so that things are shared more evenly. "Power and wealth are bad because I don't have them."

Later on, you realise that this is lazy-minded bollocks and discover that it is possible to work and save and take responsibility for your life.

Not all youth are lefties Ian. Take myslef for example. I( ahve no problem with Ameircas power. To say I wasnt jealous of it would be lying, but at least I admit that rather than finding excuses for taking the mick out of them. I am glad we are working with the Amercans and wish them the best of luck in the future (better them than anyone else as our world leaders).
