We already have age limits at the lower end. Why are people so against age limits at the upper end?

I'm still ardently pro-youth and against exclusion even at almost 40; I would like to believe I'll still be for age caps when I'm old. Like actual old. I know I'm already fuckin' old. You know what I mean.

I've got over a decade on you, and if anything I'm further left and more pro age-limits than I've ever been in my life.

Ditto. I recognize my cognitive slide from even 10 years ago... And Mitch has decades on me... I also realize that the older my kids have gotten, the more out of touch I've become.... These fossils dinner gaf though... Having strokes on live tv won't even stop them.
