- "A broader reason is that today's young adults have grown up in an environment in which news about political events has been increasingly more avoidable and less shared than in the past" (pg. 6)
- There used to be a time when there were only a few channels available. With the increasing channels and technology, there are so many other options that people tend to choose. Interests have shifted away from politics and more towards other distractions.
- The youth today has a lesser chance of following politics because it is harder to find the information with all the other intriguing topics out there. There are way too many other choices that the youth tend to follow because we have grown up with the increase in social networks and technology.

- "...those who participate in the political process are more likely to benefit from government programs and policies" (pg. 5)
- The people that are constantly following politics are able to see how certain laws and policies will shape their lives and how to manipulate them to benefit themselves. They are more informed on what to vote for.
-Since the youth is less likely to participate in politics,  we are unable to see if a certain law we vote for will have a positive or negative effect. We will not be able to vote for laws that better fit society because we have not done the political research.

- "Lack of interest leads to lack of information" (pg. 4)
-Without the personal drive to go out and search for political news, people are less likely to be knowledgable on the topic. People often forget information the they are not particularly interested in.
- The younger generations have found other interesting subjects to follow (celebrities) and rather not waste their time learning about politics. They have fallen into other distractions that the new technological era has brought up.
