If you want to amass a large group of people to exploit for political gains, targeting people without fully developed impulse control (quite literally one of the last things we develop in our brains in our mid-20s) can be very effective. Fortunately this is also counter-balanced by the natural inclination towards political apathy in young people, so no matter how much time and money people put into “get out the vote” campaigns targeting young people, it almost never moves the needle in elections.
