in response to Analog:
First of all my intention is not to argue, I stated an opinion. I admit I erred not giving reasons for the opinion but to assume that I have a blind, baseless distrust in the judgement of anyone under 21 I feel shows a lack of imagination and creativity. What's good for the economy is not always good for the people. An example would be the lack of public transportation and the completed goal of the oil, tire, auto, and insurance industries to force on us a dangerous and expensive means of getting about. Check the insurance rates on kids and then go figure why they are so high. Could it possibly be that they are, as proven by accident reports, the most likely to have accidents due to thier imaturity? No that couldn't possibly be it. Mayhaps the insurance industry just has a blind, baseless distrust in the judgment of anyone under 25.
My view is kids should be kids and focus on thier education, enjoying the joys of youth (not frying up burgers and delivering pizzas), and certainly not cluttering thier youthful minds with the crap that they will get far too much of as adults. Can't we let kids be kids? Is our country in such bad shape that they have to vote and be part of the work force? I realize though that I make no sense. Good day.
