3. Democrats are so stupid sometimes...
The average teenager in the U.K. has 800+ illegally downloaded mp3s; 95% of people between the ages of 18-24 have illegally copied music, and half of them would be willing to share all of their music right now:

I would assume the numbers for young Americans are the same. Part of me hopes that this kind of blatant corruption will further politicize young people, but given the Democrats' love affair with the intellectual property gangsters, I'm rather afraid of how it's going to politicize young people. If I were the Republican party, this is how I would be winning back the youth vote.
