Mitch can embarrass himself all he wants, I don't care. Not like Kentucky would elect anyone better to replace him

Feinsrein should retire for all our sakes and hers

Should absolutely have a mandatory retirement age for civil servants. Hell, I don't even care if you give them an exorbitant pension just get them out of there by 70.

Actually the Republicans do want her gone but that was to get more Republicans in the Senate than anything really moral, it was the one thing I remember Larry Elder said he would do if Newsom recalled

they wanted her gone before the elections

right now if she retires Biden won't be able to appoint someone else to the judiciary committee which means republicans won't let him appoint judges

Do you also find the concept of a retirement age disgusting? Should we hire 80 year old heart surgeons and firefighters?

Every politician should be forcibly removed the day they turn 65. Though if we had strict term limits, we wouldn't be a country run by fossils in the first place.

I dont like mandatory retirement ages, no. As long as someone shows they're capable of doing the job and willing to work, they should be allowed.

But I'm totally down for term limits and I agree they'd make age limits unnecessary.

Because then everyone is gonna try. Senior citizens are demonstrably less capable than younger people. It's not some weird racist or sexist thing.

I feel like arguing that people in their 70s and 80s should be allowed to work is just a symptom of us being conditioned by our shitty society. They shouldn't need to. It's really no different than arguing against a lower age limit for employment.

They shouldn't need to work - I GUOLY agree and if we treat a retirement age as "this is the age we give you the option" I'm down for that, but many WANT to work and are perfectly capable.

I doubt you'd be finding "everybody" try and be a heart surgeon or firefighter at that age. You'd probably have next to none. But if you're forcing someone to retire solely because of their age - no sign of degradation of ability - you are unquestionably in the wrong.
