20. There's a war on the young, across our country, across the world.

Public and private debt are out of sight, still.

Where are the visionary policies that create hope and opportunity for the youngest among us?

Even among Democrats, the ideas of college access, universal health care, and divesting of military spending for domestic initiatives are disputed, not to mention a climate emergency with no signature legislation in sight.

Older folks and younger folks alike have work to do to turn these trends around.
