The only people who should be voting 18-21 are active-duty military, period.

That's what they should have put in the 26th amendment in the first place.

Their argument at the time was that if you are old enough to die for your country, you ought to be old enough to vote. The proponents of the 26th should have made that the main focus. Soldiers can vote. As for everyone else, if you aren't actively serving your country, screw you.
