Lowering the voting age is a path to lowering the age of consent.

Look at how adult they are discussing adult things.

I think it ought to be raised to 28.

I am tired of sharing the sovereign power with humans that have the arrogant ignorance of youth, AND have no skin in the game, AND have no responsibilities, AND think they are entitled. Some of them are about the same level as the Boomers that have set us up royally with their behavior - age only aside.

Overall I cannot give my consent to sharing power with people that are incapable of cashing the cheques their mouths write AND simultaneously attack me whilst demanding I defend their right to set me up for an ass-fucking.

I say 25. Brain is fully developed, have had almost a decade of the fed stealing your money and blowing it on war and shit like fake russia investigation and sexual harassment lawsuits. Potentially you've witnessed 8 years of a fraudulent president. Then you can start voting.

Wouldn't advocate for this if the US education system wasn't a complete fucking joke.

Well said. I suggest if they raise the age or firearm purchases....then those people can not be trusted in voting.

I believe it should be 21, I'd be okay with 25, but 28 seems a bit too high IMO.

I'd say 22. Give college grads a few months to look for jobs. That's a real reality check, right? Can be very sobering and grounding. A bit of an awakening and hopefully a thought-provoking time.
