1. I pay income tax (I wash dishes).
2. I do a lot for my community and therefore am a responsible citizen.
Why does age dictate voting restrictions? How can I have my voice heard if I'm not allowed to? I want to vote!

Crushing your idealism until we are certain it will never revive takes time. This is why you must wait before you are allowed to vote.
