Yeah.
Kids should be allowed to rake puberty blockers and hormones at 12 but they're not developed enough to realize the long term health effects of smoking until 21

They should raise the voting and draft age back to 21. If we ever get into a war where we have to draft people, it would be WWIII and we’d be fricked anyway. Probably wouldn’t have enough time to draft anyone.

IMO, once you’re an adult, every “adult right” should be granted at the same time.
Drinking, smoking, army, jury duty, voting, buying a gun, renting a car, renting a hotel, etc.
All should be the same age. If you’re old enough to serve, you’re a fricking adult and should be able to have all of the privileges granted to adults.
Yeah I think that's a reasonable position
There might be some legit debate about what that age is but it's not unreasonable to think that adult shite should be universal

Yes, you're either an adult or you're not an adult. There's no such thing as being an adult for something like killing people on behalf of the United States government, but not an adult for smoking a Joe right after you do it.

That's fine.
California's GNP (value produced inside its borders) is very, very high.

18 yo should be able to do everything that a 65 yo can do.
Either that, or don’t draft them. Don’t let them vote.
And 18 yo should buy health insurance. They should not be on their parent’s policy until 26. I did 47 years ago. Why can’t youngins today do it?
Personal responsibility.

They can’t have if both ways. Conservatives should have never consented to negotiate with the left.

If they raise the age to buy a gun, then they should raise the age to vote.
That won't happen.

Depends on if the company pays taxes in CA or SD.
