Coding isn't some smarts test. I hope building a website never becomes an elected official prerequisite.

People of every age category has been dumbed down, we're all in a mental funk and decline. I blame our phones.
The internet will need to be decoupled from the phones. They need to be made less friendly for digesting media and browsing content.
And have only task on demand push information. Maps, Contacts, phones, Messaging ect. Not all of the social media nonsense, web browsers and video streaming. It would be a boom for the economy and manufacturing all over the world if that were to happen. Put those services in TVs, Stereos, stand alone appliances, and self maintenance over the internet functions. There's hundreds of industries the phone has hijacked and has done a mediocre job at doing so.

Most people say, "Well it's what the people want" no it isn't. It's intentional, when we see one product rise it is most always intentional it's at the expense of effective tried and true standard's expense. I saw a video the other day on why America doesn't allow small pickup trucks like the Mazda B2000 Ford Ranger, Chevy S10 and Nissan Hard Body. The Tacoma is a puny 4 cylinder small truck dropped in a heavy full truck frame. They are lazy and sluggish as a result. The things would scoot if the were in a small truck. We don't have Cameras and Video cameras like before iPhone and Android hijacked them. Because they decided they want all of our pictures on a device they can search remotely and you don't actually own if you clicked agree to the iPhone and Andriod EULA. And don't get me started on Gas cans, light bulbs, soap, bread and our food industry in general. Did Obama's young aides NOT write the Obama care fistfuck?

If it were up to young people we would have a palm size device that spits out paper rain coats on demand. And then no store will ever sell Parkers, Ponchos, Rain Jackets or Wind Breakers because the youngsters already solved humanities outdoor temperature regulation needs.
Of course a paper raincoat would be useless but then again so is studio produced digital audio.

Please if young people could stop coming up with dumb ideas that would be great.

I think 38 to 69 is a good rule of thumb, for the voters to make when choosing a candidate. While taking the exception for great ones that younger than 38, and older than 69.
But lets be honest we don't chose the candidates, the party does, we pick which outfit looks best during the primaries. But we don't get to rummage though the closet to pick the best outfit.

One idea: If they win the Party Primary by more than 65%? If so, then they can stand past ~70.

. Most are braindead morons who are only puppets and read and vote on what ever their Aides and Staffers prepared for them

Yep, but at the end of the day it's the elected official that votes and/or amends, etc.

I don't know. Watching them on Satan's treadmill, blackmailed, families threatened, and periodically tied to a chair and hosed, occasionally to be killed and replaced with imposter avatars, or wheeled into Congress as dessicated zombies, is kind of fun in a way. We can watch their ritualized humiliations devoid of joy or conscience. I think the actor avatars who replace some of them, like Fetterman or Nancy Actress, seem to be having more fun because they are the walk ons and can take off the masks.

They thought the devil's wages were going to be a perpetual carnival of adrenochrome, perverted sex, indulgence, incredible wealth and personal grandiosity. Instead, they are desperate old crumbles who can't retire or rest because their brand names are too valuable to the PTB, and resting means oblivion. Their fortunes are likely returned to the mother ship, too, with only a percentage commission left to their heirs.

Skip age for a second, at least with regards to voting. High school educated or GED required at 18 to vote. 21 otherwise. But you cannot be drafted without a basic education. Can't drink, vote or be part of a draft until 21.

Fetterman is a bad example though as he's not that old but had a stroke. Likely other issues going on there where he shouldn't have been elected anyway. Pelosi is a joke to the rest of the country, we can't vote her out. You CA folks need to get it going. She's on deaths doorstep so probably a moot point anyway in the next 4-6 years.

Fact is older is not alway wiser or intelligent. Younger is naive. I get it. But 40-55 is right in the wheelhouse where they get the young and the old. When I'm 60 I'll be calling my grandson a dip shit and he's probably smarter than me.

35-55 is peak mental acuity. Mix of knowing enough, being experienced enough, yet young enough to feel the pulse.

Many people in their 70s are out of touch, like these old Pastors who married in 1972 in Kansas talking about flowers on the first date and shit that was gone 30 years ago. Every guy knows flowers on the first date is "I'm an incel, don't fuck me, but call me a nice guy."

Either Thomas Sowell has someone still writing one liners that are spot on to current events. Or he still has a sharp mind, that I would vote for President. Even at the ripe age of 94 and he's still knocking it out of the park.

True, which is why I think term limits should not be about age. The problem as I see it is that 10-12 years is long enough to be in government and time to get back to the real world. I would rather see that sharp 94-year-old in a first term than a 50-year-old winning his 3rd Senate term.

They are working on making the politician pure CGI bots, anyway, so no worries about age problems. They'll be recycled versions of old stars, like the Hollywood clone allegations.

A decerebrate nation is a happy slave nation, just put out more sports and game shows.
