Biden Urges Young People to Get Involved
https://politicalwire.com/2018/01/13/biden-urges-young-people-get-involved/"SNIP.........
Former Vice President Joe Biden told the the Los Angeles Times that he has little sympathy for millennials who think they have it tough.
Said Biden: “The younger generation now tells me how tough things are. Give me a break. No, no, I have no empathy for it. Give me a break. Because here’s the deal guys, we decided we were gonna change the world. And we did. We did. We finished the civil rights movement in the first stage. The women’s movement came to be. So my message is, get involved. There’s no place to hide.”
He added: “There’s an old expression my philosophy professor would always use from Plato, ‘The penalty people face for not being involved in politics is being governed by people worse than themselves.’ It’s wide open. Go out and change it.”
