The correct response is: to persuade readers that the voting age should be lowered in the U.S.
Read the text.
Voting age is a complex issue, but there are clear reasons why the age should be lowered from eighteen in the United States. First, many people younger than eighteen are employed and pay taxes. This is what early Americans called "taxation without representation." Also, many laws impact citizens under eighteen, and that could be called "regulation without representation." Some people argue that young people lack the maturity or knowledge to vote responsibly.
However, many young people are informed about and active in politics. Additionally, adult voters are not required to have specific knowledge or experience. A number of nations already allow sixteen- and seventeen-year-olds to vote. This policy justly recognizes the rights of younger people. The U.S. should not be left behind.
