And that raises the question, should people above a certain age stop being considered as adults and have their adult privileges taken away? Just like children who tend to lack critical thinking can't vote then why should people older than a certain age get to do it?
Note, this is not something that I necessarily agree with, especially because I know quite a few of old people (my ex-professors) who seem quite good with critical thinking.

- AnaniasAnanas 8y agoI totally agree, which is part of why I believe that age limitations on people who can vote is a bad idea.
