Output (English): Popular rock singer and aspiring revolutionary Max Frost Christopher Jones was born Max Jacob Flatow Jr., his first public act of violence was blowing up his familys new car. Frosts band, the Troopers, live together with him, their women, and others, in a sprawling Beverly Hills mansion. The band includes his 15yearold genius attorney Billy Cage Kevin Coughlin on lead guitar, exchild actor and girlfriend Sally LeRoy Diane Varsi on keyboards, hookhanded Abraham Salteen Larry Bishop on bass guitar and trumpet, and anthropologist Stanley X Richard Pryor on drums. Maxs band performs a song noting that 52 of the population is 25 or younger, making young people the majority in the country. When Max is asked to sing at a televised political rally by Kennedyesque Senate candidate Johnny Fergus Hal Holbrook, who is running on a platform to lower the voting age from 21 to 18, he and the Troopers appear—but Max stuns everyone by calling instead for the voting age to become 14, then finishes the show with an improvised song, Fourteen Or Fight!, and a call for a demonstration. Maxs fans  and other young people, by the thousands  stir to action, and within 24 hours protests have begun in cities around the United States. Fergus advisors want him to denounce Max, but instead he agrees to support the demonstrations, and change his campaign—if Max and his group will compromise, accept a voting age of 15 instead, abide by the law, and appeal to the demonstrators to go home peaceably. Max agrees, and the two appear together on television, and in person the next day using the less offensive mantra fifteen and ready. Most states agree to lower the voting age within days, in the wake of the demonstrations, and Max Frost and the Troopers campaign for Johnny Fergus until the election, which he wins by a landslide. Taking his place in the Senate, Fergus wishes Frost and his people would now just go away, but instead they get involved with Washington politics. When a congressman from Sally LeRoys home district dies suddenly, the band enters her in the special election that follows, and Sally  the eldest of the group, and the only one of majority age to run for office  is voted into Congress by the new teen bloc. The first bill Sally introduces is a constitutional amendment to lower the age requirements for national political office—to 14, and Fourteen or Fight! enters a new phase. A joint session of Congress is called, and the Troopers by now joined by Fergus son Jimmy Michael Margotta swing the vote their way by spiking the Washington water supply with LSD, and providing all the senators and representatives with teenaged escorts. As teens either take over or threaten the reins of government, the Old Guard those over 40 turn to Max to run for president, and assert his their control over the changing tide. Max again agrees, running as a Republican to his chagrin, but once in office, he turns the tide on his older supporters. Thirty becomes a mandatory retirement age, while those over 35 are rounded up, sent to reeducation camps, and permanently dosed on LSD. Fergus unsuccessfully attempts to dissuade Max by contacting his estranged parents Bert Freed and Shelley Winters, then tries to assassinate him. Failing at this, he flees Washington, D.C. with his remaining family, but they are soon rounded up. With youth now in control of the United States, politically as well as economically, and similar revolutions breaking out in all the worlds major countries, Max withdraws the military from around the world turning them instead into de facto age police, puts computers and prodigies in charge of the gross national product, ships surplus grain for free to third world nations, disbands the FBI and Secret Service, and becomes the leader of the most truly hedonistic society the world has ever known. Ultimately however, Max and his cohorts may face future intergenerational warfare from an unexpected source: preteen children. When a young girl finds out Maxs age which is now 24, she sneers, Thats old! Later, after Max kills a crawdad that was a pet to several young kids, then mocks their youth and powerlessness, one of the kids resolves, Were gonna put everybody over ten out of business.
