"I feel bad for the kids that are in school right now and the young people all across America who don't realize that the grownups who are supposed to be running this country are the verge of leaving them as the first generation of Americans worse off than the generation before"

This quote by Marco Rubio speaks to the present state of the United States and the absence of management from the adults in charge. He expresses sympathy for the kids and youths who remain in school today and all throughout America, as they are uninformed of the fact that the grownups in charge are on the brink of leaving them as the first generation of Americans worse off than the generation before. This is a plain pointer of the value of leadership and the consequences of not having it. It is a call to action for adults to take duty and ensure that the future generations are not left even worse off than the existing one. It is a suggestion that the future of the United States is in the hands of the grownups in charge and that they need to take action to make sure that the future generations are not left worse off.
