Proof: People Get Smarter with Age

This is perfect evidence that people - most of us - get smarter with age.

On this graph on voting intention resulting from a survey in the last British General Election in late 2019, it clearly shows that the younger generations prefer a socialist government.

Socialism is a step away from communism-the state runs everything and provides everything in some kind of utopia where money is plentiful, everyone's needs are catered for and everyone lives happy ever after. Oh to be so lucky.

Unfortunately, socialism and communism lead to totalitarianism where freedoms diminish and democracy becomes a thing of the past. There is a long list of socialist/Marxist states that failed eg, Venezuala most recently.

Youths are accustomed to mum and dad looking after them and it takes a while for us as youths to realise that we've eventually got to look after ourselves and one day our parents will be gone and we'll be prime determinants of our own wealth and happiness.

In this graph, there is clear evidence that between 24 and 34 years, we are beginning to realise that a capitalist, free enterprise system is better than a command economy. As we get older, according to the graph, we're more inclined to support conservative democracy.

Voters in many Western countries have tried the socialist path and are more and more turning to stable, conservative governments as they see so-called progressive policies destroying their countries.

What do you think?
