Welll I think they do I mena for those who have grandchildrens because lets not forget they do want the best from them. And plus they do have more ‘experience’ in life. I am not against the idea of a younger government but look at OUR generation … i mean .. Just look at it, i am sure dat not all of us are like dat but they are a big majority.

I know, but once again education is key. The educated will find out whats best for us. Why we never get really educated people in office. The goverment is nothing more than a favouritism race.
Silence your awesome you ask question that we think about that we ponder about and thanks. And only the educated are free
You know I never though about it but you are right, only the educated are free.

To be that well educated you have to put a lot of time into it.
The reason they are middle aged is because they have been working with politics all their lives, which enables to them to be highly knowledgeable and be able to make predictions.
A younger government may have some fresh ideas, but they are not as qualified.
I take it you are on about leaders. Do you know the government is made up of hundreds maybe thousands of people, who all work together. The guy in charge is just like a “rep” and gets the ultimate say. Because at the end of the day, they need a boss like person on the team.
MANY young people influence and create ideas and decisions to be put forward. Just because you don’t see them doesn’t mean they aren’t there. But no body wants to see a young inexperienced front guy representing everyone. You need to do a bit of research before this kind of thing because you haven’t looked at who actually is there.
I think Raver has a good point. Candidates are chosen by the people to represent them.
What you see is the candidate, or the person who holds the office. You don’t see all of the people who work for him/her that pass information up to that office. It may look to you that there is only one person there but in reality there are many people who support the majority of the thinking about issues. Political parties do massive amounts of research to find out what peoples views are on issues. They get this information from all age demographics and try to make it work for as many people as they can.
I know that the goverment is made up of hundreds of people, but you have to look at the goverment that controlls the country, your senate, president, supreme court and judicial system.
Every person who makes up these people are over 30 and not by choice either.
I think we would see more seccess out of people who has less expeirence witht he goverment because that way they dont know how to work around and instead they woudl work with it to u nderstand more.

The person is over 30 but what about the other 500 people who are aged 21-50 ?
Theres no room for agism in the goverment. Its too petty. Seriously dude do some research otherwise we will just be banging our heads against brick walls because you don’t know who runs the government…
maybe i wasn’t clear….these people you mention are like the “actors” who just do what they are told and read off a script. The people who do all the backstage work are the ones who decide what happens. They spend months or even years debating and planning and discussing every single law or ‘rule’…Seriously…do your homework before you answer lol
Ok, telling me I dont know how the goverment is run is one thing, sure.
The senate which is responsible for funding, sending, and adding more troops to the war. The senate is also responsible for practically every law that is passed and the senate is also responsible for the introduction of new laws.
The average age of the senate is 30 plus.
I say we need change because these people dont care about our future they care about theirs. Unfortunatley my future is in a different time then theirs.
I say goverment needs a drastic age change, you say no because you think they are wiser.
Over Half the people who make decisions have no clue about anything that they are deciding to do.
Im not saying age is the only change Im saying people need to be put into categories.
Those who no money, deal with the economics. Those who fought in wars, deal with terrorism and war. Those in the medical department, deal with medicare.
You cant learn everything from a book, you need expierence in the field.
I can tell you for a fact that I have been contacted by at least two different Senators that showed interest in stories I wrote in our local paper and one of them took the time to help me with a medical problem that my wife is facing. These people are bombarded everyday with requests to help the average person every day in a wide variety of subjects. They have a staff that keeps them up to date on many different subjects. They have interns that are young and provide that voice to them that you say is lacking. Have you looked at any one of the Senators websites? Have you voiced your concern with any one of them? I think that you would be surprised to find out that they are involved with many of the things that you think that they are not.
I dont think you understand you are giving me a singe case study. Im not talking about small changes, with helping your wife or helping the dog next door. We are a nation, its we who needs to be delt with not you that Im concerned about.
I want you to understand how much corruption is in the senate. I want you to think of this, are medicare is going down the drain. Gas prices are rising rapidly despite the fact we have the resources, why do they not put a cap on it? because they can afford the prices. The war in Iraq, people have been telling them to leave no one wanted it, yet we are still there?
Education is no longer a number 1. The senate strives on our stupidity of not knowing how are goverment works. Senates have been purchasing Ipods, going out to eat, and doing so much with our tax money that if we were to see where all the money went we would be seriously mad.
Once again, you are a single case study, Im looking at what happens more consistanly.
Ok really….i think you have no idea what is happening in the goverment.
Do you REALLY think if they just sorted out your gas prices, did some more for education and the other problems you mention…that it would all be perfect?
I’m sorry but you have no idea how its goin on…it just doesn’t work like that. There will always be some areas that need more…but they will ALWAYS need more. No matter how much you improve it, it will always need something else.
Older people don’t care for their future..there not trying to help that AT ALL. There are people to try and benfit our future…as for the others…they are trying to create the present a better place to be..
Seriously i agree with Larry. LOOK on their websites. Actually take a minute to read whats going on. Go and look at what bills are being put forward right now. Instead of raising your issues. When you don’t even know what they are doing already. I understand your outrage. But nothing is done for no reason.
As for the war…i’m not being funny but America did want that war after what happened on 9/11. I went there afterwards and i had over 100 people talking to me telling me how grateful america was for england backing them in the war. So don’t say. NOBODY wanted it. Because a dam lot of people did want it.
Everyones moaning because “people die”. Don’t get me wrong, its SAD that people die. But its a war FFS. What do you expect?
And by the way, fuel prices are going up all over the world because of how fuel is running lower and lower each year. Its not your goverment putting the prices up…its the fuel itself costing more.
I never said that the goverment would be perfected. The war on the other hand, was brought to us by the senate and president as something that would be economically sound and the death tolls would be low. They, used false propaganda to get people to support the war. Put yourself in the war, maybe join the army and then go over to Iraq and tell me if it was lies or not, because I have been there.
Next, I do know how the goverment works, so by constantly saying that you are just repeating yourself. I do visit there websites and all the bills being put forward are the small bills. When I say small I mean not the issue that we are looking for.
Despite your fuel price arguement, we have resources for fuel that would supply us for a long long time. We also have resources for fuel efficent vehicles that pass the 50mpg.
we have spent more money on interest, then health care, homeland security, and education.
Somewhere we went wrong, and we have yet to fix it. I know its not something fixed over night, but as I say the goverment is corrupt and runs on money, its time for a change.

Believe me…i hate this rise in costs…it affects me and it pisses me off. But they have reasons. Its not for nothing..
Again with the war thing…i’m saying it was entirely truthful. If anything i should know this, the war was to take out saddam hussein who were knowingly allowing al queda terrorist groups claim asylum in their country. the uk were told they had satellite images of weapons of mass destruction. We were made to believe that we were all going to be bombed to death! And it was a lie! So you don’t need to convince me.
But as i said before…its a war…people die in wars. Its tragic but it happens. Its like complaining that people who eat too much have gotten fat…its inevitable.
Things just go hand in hand. War=Death. Sorry but its just the way it is….what did everyone seriously expect?
i’m not saying it was entirely truthful**
