I will take the other view, we need more people who will pay the bills after I am long dead voting.

@arthur-dent the good of a country needs informed voters.  allowing my daughter and her crew of broccoli headed bfs to vote in a year is comical

@mcm666 age doesn't mean informed.

 

We boomers just got enhanced tax breaks. Why in God's Name do we need more tax breaks when the country is so deeply in debt?

age doesn’t mean informed.

greater likelihood of experience and education giving rise to more informed decisions.  i mean at 16 you are talking about a brain that isn't even close to full development

And at 80, or 90? Should Biden or Trump be allowed to vote?

Trump would have liked cozying up to female 16-year-olds

@hurryinghoosiers hickory.  i think you sometimes forget that we've had thousands of your posts. the only unity the left and right had on the board was that you were the dumbest poster on it. it's nice to see you and shitter ruining another thread tho.  dumb and dumber. you already made the wc barely worth reading as it's no fun to engage with someone with a 69 iq opining on legal matters and politics.  and here you are again.  ignorance is bliss

@hurryinghoosiers the only thing you're providing is trolling threads.  same as the wc. you don't have the ability to debate.  don't have the knowledge.  so this is what you do.  allllllllllllllllllllllll the time
