Why Japan's Young People Aren't Rocking the Vote

The video discusses the low political involvement of Japanese youth, highlighting that only a third of people aged 20-29 voted in 2012. This low turnout affects fiscal policies, as the government prioritizes older voters who are more active. The apathy among young voters is attributed to a sense of futility and an aging population. Despite these challenges, career concerns dominate youth conversations, as stable employment is harder to secure. Economic issues, such as stagnant wages and non-regular jobs, are also key topics. The video concludes with a light-hearted remark on Prime Minister Abe's tenure.
