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.
