Sorry to urinate on your bonfire but I was thinking mostly of the government who were in power for the overwhelming majority of the current school leavers' lifetimes and who had ample chances to improve their lot but instead focussed on the state taking over from fathers and removing them from the financial equation, and having outreach co-ordinators and non-jobs try and do parenting for parents who shouldn't have been.
There is absolutely no way, whatsoever, that the plight of the current 16 - 21 year olds can be laid at the foot of either Cameron or Thatcher, the people in charge of parenting policy, welfare policy, I mention those because they're the two most relevant to this discussion, youth training and education while the above were between 2 and 14 and 7 and 19 respectively was the Labour party.
The concern over Cameron is that he shows no signs of reversing this desperately awful trend, continuing to allocate resources badly, the only hope is that through welfare and taxation they'll get a grip and accept that, on the whole, 2 parent families do better than 1 and reflect this within tax and benefits rather than incentivising 1 parent families.
