The Cysko Kid Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 If you can't be trusted to make choices about whether you can use cigarettes and alcohol you can not be trusted to essentially make financial decisions for other people.

Ibleedbrown Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 For historical reference it was the 26th amendment, ratified in 1971, that dropped the voting age to 18. The obligatory link. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-sixth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution At the time one of the compelling arguments was that young men could be drafted and go off to war at age 18, so why not let them vote?
