    Not if that person is still paying taxes. Taxation without representation is one of the big founding points of the US.

    But what about under 18s that can't vote but are taxes on their income? IMO, they shouldn't be paying taxes. Taxation should only apply to those that can vote. I don't think lower the voter age is probably the right thing. I remember being under 18, and I was an idiot and so were most of my peers in respect to the politics.
