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.

[c=#008099]Well if 70 year olds don't contribute anything more to society as you say, would you object to the government returning the 40% of earned income they pay in direct taxation from their pension plans? After all, if they don't contribute anything but money to society, then why not give that tax money back to them if you consider their vote to be irrelevant?[/c]
