SERIOUS QUESTION--Should the legal voting age be raised to 25?

Since the frontal cortex (the area of the brain that is for judgment, critical thinking) is not developed until around age 25, should the voting age be raised from 18 (at least in the US, could apply to other countries) to 25?

Yes, it absolutely should.

21 should be the bare minimum, the 26th amendment was a mistake.

Agreed, and I'm only 18 lol. Maybe for the next election cycle?

I'm Mexican and I can't even vote
* raises hands in i dunno *

No, infantilism spreads to a much later age. You're hurting more than you're solving.

Should be 30s, tbqh

18 is fine here in the UK, besides its not practical to change it ... I dont think there's been a time in western democracy where the voting age went up instead of down.

I'm specifically talking about the development of judgment.

Perhaps the influx of socialist millennials who never grew up seeing the effects of communism could be impeded, correct?

Nope. People should have to pass a test that shows that they understand how our government and Constitution is supposed to work. We need to weed out all of the low information voters, and there are plenty of those over the age of 25.

That's what legal immigrants who pass a citizenship test have to go through, right?

yeah I agree, its almost become default to become a leftist. Teenagers are less prone to have superior thinking skills and tend to follow the crowd.

And women. Don't forget women

>voting shouldn't be restricted to soldiers and male property owners

Yup. IMO, the practice tests are easy, but most Americans probably could not pass one.

Unless they took AP Government or AP US History lol

ngl I know this is Sup Forums but women (despite having different skillsets and rationale) should be treated accordingly to men in terms of the vote... and blacks. The voting age however should be 18-21 in the west.

I kid I kid. I'm just going off of your statement that they vote with the crowd

it needs to be like Starship Troopers. there needs to be a difference between civilian and citizen

if you dont know what you are voting for you shouldnt be allowed to, it's quite simple, no matter of age, elders can be quite stupid too

you're not kidding, in that case

I'm not a misogynist, m'kay?

What about Senile people what should be the maximum voting age?

Also the minumum voting iq?

The maximal legal voting age should be set to 60, since older people won't really get to suffer the consequences of their actions.
I'm 100% serious about this.

Should be 30.

Ehh, a bit to high, t.bh

i'm 22 and id be totally on board with this, im willing to sacrifice my vote for the sake of denying all the idiotic "lele i voted for trudeau because he's cute xDDD" votes

OH GOD THAT PICTURE

Yes, it should be 25. It will never happen though, because kikes have a much easier time conditioning college age people into voting a specific way and are easy to use for political purposes and the degradation of society.

Looks like Trudeau is joining the Tranny Cirque du Soleil.

imagine if 80% of the US was Californian liberals, add like 10 million chinks and below freezing temperatures, a leader that makes obongo look like Nigel Farage and you have Canada.

Please annex us WE HAVE OIL YOU LIKE OIL RIGHT?

Yeah. 18 is too young and you're impressionable. 25 is a good adult age that helps you conduct what is good

The age to vote should be like from 21 to 60. 18-21 y/o kids don't even care about politics. And 60+ are easily brainwashed (at least here in Serbia).
