Not allow under 21 citizens to pay taxes if they cannot drink alcohol

Created by M.B. on July 18, 2012

Under 21 citizens should not have to pay taxes if they cannot drink alcohol. An 18 year old has almost every right as an adult, except drinking alcohol. He/she can vote, go to war, get married, buy a house, take out loans, AND if he/she has a job they pay taxes. If a citizen is able to do all of those and is required to pay taxes, then the government should have no right to make it illegal to drink until that person is 21. If an under 21 citizen cannot drink alcohol, then they should not have to pay taxes.
