Already got your bag and want the poors to bleed to death?

Well you're in luck!

I have a newly vacated beach-front property for sale (also has a shit ton of Natural Gas under the ground)!

Older people are more likely to have accumulated wealth/property by virtue of having had more time to do so, and are more likely to want to defend it (and the status quo that gave it to them) politically.

As time is going on however, each successive generation has less and less, and with it less investment in maintaining and defending the way things are.
