Now that the British government has vowed to lower its voting age to 16 by the next general election, one Canadian senator says it's past time for Canada to do the same.
No. Because the boomer generation was so massive that their voting power surpassed any other generation. Even if they don’t even all go vote, they still buried the X and millennials combined.
Nah brah they legit just have nothing better to do but vote. It’s why seniors have such a strangle hold on democracies. Compulsory voting is a must have. The whole reason why the voting age is being lowered in the UK is because the voter demographics are so skewed to the elderly.
Adulthood is being ignored by your government and watching items you like disappear from the grocery store. Perhaps now teenagers will finally be tolerable and integrate well with society as their dreams die and the light in their eyes fade.
Why? So teenagers, too, can be ignored by the government?
You know why seniors’ issues tend to be addressed? Because they vote like their lives depend on it and put the rest of us to shame.

The largest age cohort in America are millenials, not boomers.

But, Boomers outvote millenials by a silly margin. Silly takes like “there are more boomers” probably don’t help.

I think you meant to respond to someone else, none of that seemed like a response to what I wrote.
