People tend to get more conservative as they age not more liberal. When I saw that in the polling results it was a big red flag.
In fact on top of that exit polling after the election showed that millennials were less liberal than the last couple of generations at the same age.
The results show in who is elected to office around the country. All the distorted polls can't change that but they make the left more hopeful that very soon it will be a liberal utopia.
The allure of socialism is based on a gigantic fraud as well as indoctrinated insanity.
Under money madness, there are only three ways to acquire money tokens:
1) Trade (labor or property)
2) Charity (private or public)
3) Predation (crime, extortion, etc)
The "believers" of collectivism argue that once a worker is deprived of a job, exhausts his stock of property and private charity, all that remains is a life of crime to support himself and his family. Therefore, public charity (socialism) is a necessary remedy to deter the desperate from a life of crime. Unfortunately, the cure is worse than the disease, since it perverts government from a beneficial defender of endowed rights to life, liberty and private property, into a predator of life, liberty and property.
Of course, for this remedy to succeed, requires money madness and cooperation of the usurers whose financial acumen can maintain the grand illusion that keeps the workers docile and cooperative while being skinned alive, over and over, repeatedly. Modern socialist governments routinely tax 40 to 60% of the gross domestic product. An Egyptian serf had it better under Pharaoh, who only took 1 part in 5 (20%).
Recapping, the rich and/or idle, supported by the labors and property of others, depend upon money madness, the indoctrinated belief that people "need" money, compulsory charity (collectivism) and a government that protects predatory usurers while "benevolently" oppressing the productive people.

Simple remedy:
Add a "fourth way" to get a medium of exchange to facilitate trade when barter is insufficient. Make your own money, as in a coupon or obligation denominated* in goods or services (*not in money!). If people realized they could make their own replacement for money, it would wipe out the usurers (bankers) as well as eradicate the strongest argument for public charity (socialism). Who needs to borrow or beg for charity when any productive person or enterprise can emit all the money tokens it can redeem, and trade them for goods and services?
Want more? Promise to do more!
Do more? Then you have the "credit" to emit even more promises!
Guess what happens when there is prodigious production AND the means to trade for it?

God is a figment of imagination. There is no scientific proof he exists and there never will be. We (people) are all there is in this world, so every single religion in this world is just make believe.....

This is nonsense. Those coupons wouldn't be backed by anything, and wouldn't be exchangeable with anyone else, so they would be worthless.
Yes, the waning of conservatism and the rise of liberalism must be it. That explains why, in just 8 years, Dems have lost the majority in the House of Representatives, the Senate, have lost the White House, most state governorships and IIRC some 1200 state legislative positions.
They didn't take into account Russian interference and collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
Is that what you think happened? Ok then, is sure you can run Hillary again in 2020 then
