    The GOP is stuck with Trump and the Dems require you to be 75 or older to run. It really is the battle of the bitter old Boomers at this point.

    It was a joke that the dems put of the geezer Hillary last time, now they are stuck with Creept Biden. Chief Warren, and Crazy Bernie, all are weeeelllllll past their prime.

    Its time to get rid of these Boomers.

    Start by example wildchild!

    Warren is ok. The markets will price her changes in before the election. Any taxes applied to the wealthy don't matter to them as long as it is an even thing. It is not about money in dollar value but about beating competitors, get that nice place on lake Tahoe etc.

    The conservative who made banking cool.

  4. Maybe the dems needed to have more candidates to choose from if the boomers are a problem.

    I guess 28 was not enough. Some of those younger ones were/are duds too. Make that "all of them."

    Same problem in Congress. Just when you think that old hag nancy needs to go, they roll out the Squad and you have to stop and think that through a bit. That ain't the prettiest road to go down either.

    Boomers are ok as long as they don't think like crusty oldsters and their minds are nimble.

    Boomers are the problem. The great George Carlin summed these people up perfectly. Hold up a mirror Bugenslaw, this describes you perfectly, pal.

    Well I'll agree with George Carlin being great.

    Personally I would make the max age for being elected president maybe 60 looking at when top CEOs age out at. I'd have to check my assumptions there but my general feeling is 60ish is around when boards of publicly traded companies lose confidence unless the guy owns the corporation.

    There are rare exceptions but even the Oracle of Omaha has been in real world performance faltering the past few years, not beating the Nasdaq or other major indices etc. lately. He has however cashed out again as he did before 2008.. when he used his cash to support other firms. So, lets hope the years have done their job and he is wrong.

    When AOC gets voted as POTUS, and she decides to ban all petroleum usage, imports, exports etc...

    The world will become a fun place. Because it will cease to exist. Boomers and Gen-Xers know what it takes to make the world tick forward. It is not going to happen on magical pixie dust and fairy wings. It will happen on oil, dudette. She is such a maroon.

    It is going to happen on CO2-belching fossil fuels. Which really isn't that bad when you consider how much CO2 came out of the Icelandic volcano from some years ago.

    Baby boomers and Gen-Xers know what is the deal. Millennials and Gen Z do not, because they have never looked up from their fucking screens long enough to look around, to see what is going on. They never look around in a true unfiltered way.

    Oracle of Omaha, what a fraud. He is the biggest media whore going. The guy is a fraud. I remember watching this fluff piece that 60 Minutes did about his son. It was total bullshit.
