I would think you give teenagers too much credit. As politically knowledgable as I am and try to teach my kids, they don't care. They'd happily vote themselves a car, home, or free money if it meant that they could be lazy shits.
I have no faith in anyone under 18 unless they can personally show me some maturity. They may actually have it, but i'm not willing to give them the right to vote due to their peers.
