I prefer the old crusty people who either sat by and did nothing or played an active role in the economic inequality in the US becoming worse than pre-Revolution France.
Imagine being more greedy and self-absorbed than Louis IVX, but just one of many oligarchs whose only motivation is your own enrichment even if it kills the entire planet.
Not a single FDR among them. Not one that cares enough to try to stop it.
What’s that Roman numeral meant to be?
IVX? The weirdest way of writing “6”
I think because of if how numerals are made, I think it would just be read as two numbers next to each other right?
IV X
4 10
I mean like if you saw this on genuine Roman writing or whatever
Louis 41
That would be XLI
I’d rather have these young, competent people aiming to make people’s lives better than those younger, completely incompetent DOGE incels breaking basic services and leaking people’s sensitve data.
More than half of these people are over 30. None are younger than 25.
All of the founding fathers save for Adams and Washington were younger than this when the declaration of independence was signed.
Can we get a % through the typical expected lifespan for comparison
How does that matter when talking about being fit for government?
God forbid someone take interest in a topic
Well because the age of your death determines your mental fitness throughout you whole life so if you can do stocks by age 3 you’re gonna die before 20 obviously.
Makes total sense, poor genius kids.
If you survived childhood, there was a decent chance you’d live to your 60s, IIRC. Obviously disease and injury were more dangerous, but childhood killed off those most likely to succumb to disease.
Yup. Infant mortality was such a large problem before modern medicine and vaccine science that the sheer number of deaths before the age of 5 reduced the mean average live expectancy by half of the mode average.
And this, children, is why learning how to properly interpret math and statistics is important. Numbers can, in fact, lie unless you know exactly what those numbers represent.
i wonder if someone calculated life expectancy without including infant mortality.
Eh, not really but kinda. The available recorded data for that information is scarce and not a complete picture. Some studies were done but they are centered on things like “expectancy of tenants/landowners” for example, not the overall picture. It’s a complicated topic and I don’t fully understand it myself.
Though, what I do know, is that through other methods of anthropological and archeological research methods, like examining bones, we are able to prove that people generally lived into their 50s-60s.
I thought political experience made you part of the swamp and the deep state. Now we want political experience? How does one go about gaining experience without running in the first place?
Same way you get experience before your first job, or a good credit score before your first loan. Duh
And still older than the children they got to destroy the country through DOGE.
Holy shit! Ambitious young people who know their shit! What… what a shame…? (Is this supposed to be bad?)
USA is going to be so different when the old people go to grave…
Goes for more than just the USA ofc., but you guys put it on display. ^^
People who have to live with the consequences of their actions?! Unfathomable, can’t be done.
