I find it hilarious that their "young guns" were already greying, our politics is fucked
I mean Paul Ryan is only 53 now and was elected to office when he was 29. He is pretty young. McCarthy is only 58. Eric Cantor is the oldest at 62.
Definitely young and around the age you want leaders to be.
ONLY 58. Even at restaurants that's a seniors discount
And retirement age isn’t until 65 or so in the majority of countries.
Being less than 10 years from retirement makes you old.
How is this not clear?
Besides the fact that’s not true, none of these men were that old when the picture was taken.
I'm younger than they are and I'm not young at 46. I own a home and have a teenage daughter. Obviously I'm not young.
If you have to work 40 years, then being in the last 10 years means you are old.
