From First Things – the conservative side of Generation X:
…X-Cons are often Goldwater-style conservatives, holding views that are more individualistic than aligned with historical conservatism. We also tend to have many cafeteria libertarians, those who pick and choose from the buffet of libertarian ideology. X-Cons may, for example, be in favor of the decriminalization of marijuana while opposing the legalization of prostitution. The libertarians in our cohort tend to be less pure than those that came before or after…
Do read the whole thing – I am not an X-Con; nor am I a Boomer. I was born in the last, technical year of the Baby Boom (1964), but am really of neither Boomer nor X generation. I’m kind of generation-less…though more in tune with X than with Boom.
Where do you stand?
