There should be a maximum voting age

just like there is a minimum age. why should someone over 70 that doesnt contribute anything to society still be allowed to vote... especially about topics that wont affect them anymore.

Sorry little one. But not only have our over 70's contributed more to this country than the 18 to 26 yo. They have made this country the great nation it is. You know, the so many want to come to for a better life.

As far as I'm concerned it always has and will always be their right to vote for as long as they live.

@Mysti No, it's their fathers and grandfathers that did that. The boomers were the most selfish, useless, and destructive generation in the American history.

The 18-26 set hasn't had a lot of chances to contribute yet, but at least they will have to live with the consequences of their decisions.

Edit - people can't read your snarky reply if you block them, you know 🙄

Actually a majority of the over 70's are part of the silent generation. Not boomers. Just sayin
