Actually, It arguably makes sense if you support a cigarette age band at 18. That is... if you think the 18 year old band and 21 year old ban were right a decade ago.


Generally, Psychology, Sociology etc have observed and codified a "Lengthening" of childhood into a new "Youth" stage that incorporates 20-25. People just aren't as maturing as fast as they used to and not thinking about the future right away.

In a lot of ways... 21 is the new 18 and 25 is the new 21.

Of course this would ALSO suggest that plenty of other things, like registering for the draft and voting should be pushed back as well if so inclined.

(Though I would argue that ~16 is really good enough for most of this stuff.)


Actually the new generation has a life spam of around 100 years old, which includes better memory and more higher intellect and more better metabolism and more natural talent in sports & music & science & math & etc.

Our generations might have a life spam of up to around 80 years.

Just having a much more better memory naturally will do a lot of good in their life.

Of course we need to increase the S.S.I. age requirement for their Generation and newer to start at least age 62, which Obama had try to do during the beginning of his presidency with that logic but was turn down by Senate and/or Congress.
