The reason they target them is because it is the most effective group to target with their toxic legislation. If you think about it that class of people are usually a few generations behind in terms of technology so they can't really keep a close eye on politics. In most cases the republican party can mask their economic policy behind paper thin social "reform" because lets be honest none of them will be around to feel the impact of those economic policies. To add to all of that they are literally the most politically active class in the U.S.(They vote on literally everything). It makes absolute sense that the republicans would target them. It will be interesting to see how the Republican party reform to get ahold of a younger vote.
