Pros And Cons Of Lowering The Voting Age

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines controversy as “a discussion marked especially by the expression of opposing views”(“Controversy”). There are a bunch of controversies that affect Americans today. Some major controversies currently are health problems, not taking care of ourselves, and death. Controversies have been known to hurt loved ones and hurt friends. Regardless of the topic, people will have different opinions and will argue.
