In more than a few States, the majority is expected to be Hispanic within a few years. In the whole US, the Hispanic population is expected to form the largest demographic group within our lifetimes. There is no doubt that the majority of workers and thus taxpayers will fall into that group by then. I wonder what these people will think of the rest of the population, which by then will be largely elderly. Perhaps they'll assert that all these retirees should have provided for themselves better rather than expecting the taxpayer and other healthcare insurance-holders to prop them up. Perhaps such decisions are being formed in the young minds of the kids we're talking about today.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
