And that, along with my being against hard drug legalization, is an example why libertarians rejected me years ago even though many here thought I was a libertarian just because I turned against the GWB invade policy.
I don't fit any simple mold.
I favor reducing the age back to 18. It was 18 until I was around 10 or 11, I believe (1984 or ‘85 ?) and I thought it was unfair to jack the age up arbitrarily to 21. However, this needs to dovetail with getting rid of the 26th Amendment and returning the voting age to 21 (if not 25), with the exception being military, police/fire, etc. I think if faced with booze or the ballot, the kids would pick booze.
Those between 18-21 are being highly manipulated by the educational establishment and are often completely divorced from the reality of those whom are actively working (post-college). The reason for the 26th had more to do with pandering to a group that was opposed to being sent off to war, and now that we haven’t had an active draft in 40+ years, that’s no longer an issue.
