Quote:If you are in America, then you arent the only one who has complained about this. The voting age used to be 21, but the drafting age was 18. So you could be refused participation in the process of electing a leader, but that same elected leader can force you to go to war against your wishes.What kind of arguments would convince you?
I think everything should kick in at 18 personally, alcohol, voting, etc...but I might be talked to lowering the voting age to 16 if I hear some good arguments.
