Why don't young people vote summary

The author of this article points out some stereotypes of young people, about being glued to technology, which in my opinion are accurate. It seems today that younger people especially are caught up in the day to day activities while completely ignoring the future. It has become a generation of people who certainly like to preach, but ignore the practice. One example of this is Colin kaepernick. He has become a controversial figure after choosing to kneel during the National Anthem in protest of racial issues in America. This certainly could be considered a valid point but it becomes ironic how he elects to kneel no problem, but he fails to vote in an attempt to elect the government he wants to fix these problems. Millennials seem to have an entitled attitude, and until that stops i believe they will continue to not vote.
