but young conservatives affected by their parents etc. can become liberal thew their life's experiences
This is true, but I think the sad reality is that those numbers are few and far between. It's always a case of someone who "escaped" their small, close-minded, conservative town, and really not the norm. Their brothers and sisters stayed, and perpetuated the cycle.
Whereas, many people become more conservative as they get older because they become more close-minded, fearful, and unable/unwilling to accept change. All that "This generation" bullshit stems from that.

Food banks keep seniors alive. This is the whole population in some way or another.
