What do you think? Personally I’m all for it. I think it’s important to have as many young people involved in politics to counteract the old majority.

    I think it’s fine in theory. However, like the other commenter mentioned, it might not be with the best intentions. Young voters, like older voters, tend to be easier to manipulate.

        True, but it isn’t solely that. I had a close family member that was a very educated chemist. Got corrupted by Fox News and eventually “red pill” communities.

      Is that actually the case? What do you base that on?

      I can see it for younger than 16. But I’m skeptical 16 is much different from 18 or 21. Maybe no different from even older.
