Why is our congress so old?

Показать описание
The United States Congress is getting older. The median age of a senator is 65, and the median age of a representative is 58. This is up from 57 and 54, respectively, in 2000.

Some people believe that there should be age limits for lawmakers. They argue that older lawmakers may not be as sharp as they used to be, and that they may not be able to keep up with the demands of the job. They also argue that older lawmakers may be more likely to be out of touch with the needs of the younger generation.

It's disgusting we have to put up with senile politicians.

Well, I don't know why, but it could be that just because someone is young doesn't mean they have any common sense. Just to name a few; Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Green, Lauren Bobert, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Lindsey Graham and George Santos . Their not old, just stupid 🙄.

We have limits. We can vote them out every 2 years. If only people would do so
