Anya Kamenetz’s column on Yahoo Finance entitled "The Big Issues for Young Voters" has been getting slaughtered in the article’s comments. Here are a selection of negative comments that illustrate the perceptions of young voters by the finance-page demographic. All spelling is left in context.

Socialists Rock! Oh yeah and John McCain is still breathing... hey I could do unbiased journalism too.... Wake up yahoo! This is a personal finance page (read: wealthier people who rather see people like this roasting on a spit before seeing their taxes go up to support those who dont know what responsibility is).. Get with the program.

the "youth vote"....the most over rated thing since paris hilton.

Rest of the post after the fold.
