I think I'm now on board with this too. 21 minimum age for everything "adult". They really are proving they are still not mature enough for anything "grown up."

You would also have to raise the age of "military service" to 21 as well. The whole point of lowering the legal/voting age to 18 was to grant representation to those who were required to serve in the Military at 18.

To be honest, I remember when the "legal age" was 21. I was very young, but I remember...

This goes with out saying. The draft age was expanded from 21- 30 to 18 -37 in 1940 because of WW II, they should have rescinded that in 46' but they didn't, instead they reduced the obligation time to 2 years of service. This was to foster a sense patriotism and participation as everyone should serve. "Do your part for your country". Then some 30 years later some moron in the government said "All 18 year olds should have representation" since they are eligible to serve. No! If you serve then you can vote, if you don't serve then you wait until you 21. An incentive. But no, enter the era of entitlement.

It's been all downhill from there.

O-BTW...... You weren't that young.

I wonder if increasing the minimum age for the military to 21 would reduce the number of cases of PTSD.

Maybe for the forward deployed grunts on the ground. Can't see how the anyone can be traumatized in the new canoe club. It's seems more like a cruise line lately. Got one of these on all carriers now days, can't do more than 60 days on line without a port-o call.
