Lower Voting Age - Commercial 1 (NYRA SE FL)

should have the same rights as adults to some degree. I also believe that there need to be laws to govern this. Like, a 16 year old should not be permitted to drink alcohol, get a driver's license, join the military, vote, etc..... Youth want to be independent like an adult so that nobody can tell them what to do or how to live, but they never want to take on the responsibilies of an adult. "Let me live like an adult, but I want you to buy me a car, give me money so I can run around all night and live very irresponsible."

As far as voting, I think that a young person will be able to make much better decisions at to what type of a person should be in the White House when they get a little more mature in their thinking. Just because a person has a mature body, don't mean they are thinking mature and responsibly..

I believe that the drinking age should be lowered to 18. If a young person can fight for our country at the age of 18, then they should be able to buy a beer. I went in the army at the age of 17. I could go to war, but it was against the law for me to buy a beer. Now, that don't make sense.
