Why Do Young People Like Socialism More Than Older People?

"Rain couldn't keep away hundreds of Georgetown University students on Thursday who waited hours outside for a chance to hear Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders explain his support for socialism."

"The fervor to see the Vermont Independent senator's major address wasn't surprising: research shows that young people are much more likely to support socialism than older people."

"A May study from the market research firm YouGov found that 26 percent of people between the ages of 18-39 have a favorable opinion of socialism, compared to only 15 percent of people over 65. The Pew Research Center has also found that almost half of people between the ages of 18-49 view socialism favorably."
