JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

If you think that suppressing any votes is a good idea, you're missing the point of democracy. Any group of people 'not being good enough' is presupposing that political engagement is a privilege that can be revoked, when convenient to whatever group is in power, and not an inalienable right.

This is trivially untrue. One could be disillusioned with democracy, believe it has limitations, or just dislike it in general. Furthermore, virtually no one is demanding ballot access for tweens, and you're suspiciously quiet on that subject. Maybe you don't "get" democracy.
