[quote=urbanrealtor]These conversations remind me of the pot-choked discussions I used to have at the Che Cafe when I was 20. The irony that they were able to have these anti-wealth idealist conversations based upon their parents substantial incomes. Similarly, I recently commented to my libertarian friend that the only reason his wife can stay at home is that the US government overpays engineers. The only difference is the subtype of anarchism being subscribed to.

Just in case you were wondering, the discussions at the Che are still the same. My son hung out there for most of the early part of this decade, still does when he’s home from school. The same anti-wealth idealism and pro-anarchy meme continues. Not a bad thing, IMO for 20 somethings to be exploring. Some of it will stick, but they’ll get smacked in the face by reality soon enough.
