There is just as much music/hullabaloo now amongst pop culture that deals with the political field, as well as plenty of people who join activist groups at a young age... but I refer back to my last statement.

You wouldn't need so many lobbyist groups out there if our lawmakers were actually worried about getting voted out of office rather than appeasing a lobby. Ask any pollster in the country: 18-25 year olds all TALK about voting and making big ol' changes, but they dont friggin vote. Not only do the youngest generations vote the least, almost every successive group of 'youngest' votes less than the LAST.
