German government wants to let 16-year-olds vote – DW – 06/05/2023
Germany's center-left government wants to lower the voting age for nationwide elections from 18 to 16. Many young people support the idea, but the majority of the population has expressed skepticism.
What do you think? Personally I'm all for it. I think it's important to have as many young people involved in politics to counteract the old majority.

At this point in time we also could get ChatGPT manage this land… I don’t think it would make a difference to lower the age. The „babyboomer“ are way more active in the voting than the younger generation :s So yes pleas lower the age to vote, also we need a maximum age for the Parlament!
Ah yes, let a language model decide politics, and ignore a few percent of potential voting power. I'd laugh if I didn't suspect you were serious.
