If you can serve your country at 18 you should also be aloud to buy a beer.

That should read “when” you serve your country at 18. Just because you’re 18 means nothing. Join the 7% willing to raise their right hand, put on a uniform and be something bigger than themselves in one on the uniformed military services of the US...THEN you can buy a beer!

No, we should not. At 16 very very few people are mature or knowledgeable enough to make an informed decision on a government official.
Should we lower the voting age to 16?
