    This is illegal. You can’t make a law that discriminated based on age. This would be effective prohibition for some adults and not others.

      The fuck are you talking about? There are all kinds of laws that make something legal or not based on someone’s age, and they often vary by state or even locale. Hell, there’s a minimum age for running for president for chryssake and it’s well past any definition of adulthood.

        Yeah and it results in super out of touch people becoming president.

          Definitely. And not just “out of touch,” it’s part of the reason why we have an ancient ghoul openly talking about how he has no empathy for the plight of younger people in that office right now.
