65 is too old. 55 is ok. 60 is acceptable but pushing it, and only if the job they are affected for lasts 4ish years

And I'm in the above age brackets, btw.
Most people in my age range have no fucking idea how to run a washing machine, so they deffo shouldn't be allowed to run governments or councils etc etc.
Age these old bastards out so they go and fuck up their garden rather than fucking up the whole world.

I was thinking not “elected” no later than 65 but forced to retired NO LATER than their 65th birthday. So a presidential candidate no older than 60, for example.

It's not just the decrepit mind, but the decrepit values. They don't care about the long run. All gerontocracies need to end.
