It seems kind of unfair seeing anyone under 18 has no way to decide the future of their country. Which they have more stake on seeing whatever decision happen while they are under 18 will be there for the rest of their life.

teenage adolescence as a concept didn’t exist until the late 19th, early 20th century. large a byproduct of the creation of public education systems.
and in the 21st century was are certainly expanding it into your 20s, for sure. I met plenty of folks in their 30s or older who are still totally dependent on their parents financially and emotionally.
yeah problem with this notion is a party could eliminate large swatches of the right to vote with folks just by acting like douches and letting wealth disparity run rampant.
rich people don’t have much of an issue with that though. where i live lots of rich liberal progressives eagerly talk about banning people from voting based on education level and wealth level. they basically think you shouldn’t have a political voice unless you making 100K and have a college degree. which is pretty similar to what conservatives want too.
I get the frustration with dealing with stupidity but yeah we know historically that you simply cannot tie it to things like that as it is to easy to manipulate. I recall some country required a college degree to run for office and then like the pres put pressue on institutions to revoke peoples degrees.
