Should 16-year-olds like Stella and Jayla be allowed to vote?

    I don’t want to choose a proxy, I want a direct say. The only person I want representing me, is me.

    Anything less is simply lipstick on a pig.

      Ok then? Do that. But why should your preference to do it that way dictate how everyone must do it?

        Obviously we would need some regulation on what is basically selling votes

        No different to the potential for the same problem today in representative elections.
