    I have no problem if people elect a NEW senator that’s 80 years old. But after two terms your service is done. Thank you, but you gotta go.

      Eh. I don’t want policy crafted by somebody who’s gonna die in the next few years. Age limits as well please.

        Call me ageist, I don’t give a fuck, these people aren’t at the top of their game, hell they aren’t even at 50% of what the top of their game used to be. Furthermore, like you said, it’s absolute bullshit that people can make laws that they won’t see the effects of.

        Cut off rep age at something like 60 if not 50. The younger generations should be the ones deciding the future, it’s THEIR future after all.
