Report of the discussion 8

Topic: Lowering the age  for voting to 16.

Supporters
・Ryuji : He is a fire man. He is 20.
・Koyama: He is a mayor of the city.

Opponents
・Mio : She is 16 and a high school student.
・Tikako : She is 20 and a college student.

Supporter's opinions
・There are some new adults who drink and make noise at coming-of-age ceremony every year. If 16 years old people get voting right, they will get feeling of responsibility.
・There are many people who are 16 years old and work at society. They should have the voting right.

Opponent's opinions
・16 years old is too young to have the voting right. There is a possibility that irresponsible votes increase.
・They don't have enough knowledge about the society.

The outcome of the discussion
They are going to put into effect three years later. They are going to teach about society at high school.

My opinion
I don't think that there is no relation between actions that new adults do at coming-of-age ceremony and having the voting right. So I don't think their plan is effective.

How effective I thought the discussion was and how it could have been better.
I thought they should speak more loud voice

My opinion:
I thought it was not clear how they treat teachers of Sakura school. They should decide that more clearly.

How effective I thought the discussion was and how it could have been better.
I thought they should show importance of the merger more. I couldn't understand  importance of the merger.
