      Re impulse control, it is now known that the human brain does not usually reach full maturity until about the early or mid 20s. The last portion of the brain to mature is the prefrontal cortex, which appears to be involved in impulse control. Until the brain is fully mature, an adult level of impulse control is unlikely to be achieved. So, first year college students are more vulnerable than older adults, and John Egan's criticism is valid.

      Governments have a valid role to play in human affairs, including economic interactions. To believe otherwise is to fall pray to the manipulations of the politicians who have become advocates for the rich and ruthless. The USA is becoming a plutocracy. The vast majority of the population in our country would be better off if our government were not neglecting its obligations to the nonrich. "The Squandering of America" by Robert Kuttner is an eye opener.
