“18 is not old enough to vote imho but I know most disagree with me.”
I agree with you. And I also believe that anyone who is under 21 years of age should not be involuntarily conscripted into our military. Let’s just make 21 the age of majority for EVERYTHING. I am damned tired of a$$holes like LBJ, GHWB, and GWB and the members of The Congress, sending minors off to get killed for NOTHING, while they somehow manage to make sure that their minor offspring miss out on the opportunity to get themselves killed for NOTHING! We’ve not fought a LEGITIMATE WAR since WWII, and yet, we’ve probably lost neary 100,000 young people in Korea, Vietnam, a bunch of “Police Actions” around the world, and more recently in that worthless Shithole collectively called the Middle East. Then, there’s also the issue of the indiscriminant pi$$ing away of trillions of dollars prosecuting these ill-advised actions. We seemingly NEVER go after those who are really responsible for attacks against us (can you say Saudi Arabia and Wahabbist Islam).
Would you still allow 18 year olds to volunteer?
