Why should young people vote? Answer in 50 words…

I was recently asked just this, and this was my 49 word effort:

Elections decide how our health service is run, what foreign wars we get into and how our education system works – and they are determined by those who turn up to vote. Why risk leaving it to other voters to express your views when you can do it directly yourself?

Can you do better?

UPDATE: Yes, someone can.
