i wonder how those kinds of proposals are even legal. It's litteraly the equivalent of buying votes.

Hardly, if you want to win elections you pander to the older generations. Being popular among 18 year-olds isn't politically interesting at all.

so this is a problem but a politician promising giant tax cuts isn’t?

We should be so lucky. But then most of those promises would be frauds since they are most of the time not followed up on once the politician is in power.

They are already giving everybody turning 18 €400 that they can use to buy videogames, netflix and music with.

All in all they give away a lot of money which you can get if you know how. Happens especially at the local level. It's corruption and basically the reason Spain will always be what it is: a shithole. We get the politicians we deserve.
