    I'm open to arguments beyond "if you're alive, you have a say in societal outcomes" The founders of this country disagreed. And they were smart peeps

    Also - your son will be asked to build, maintain, and protect society. He's 2x more likely to be a tax payer. His future should be in his hands

    Real Talk - the 19th

I'd welcome the arguments back, beyond "it's an adult American and that is it." Let's debate the merit of my...
