Some people are younger than you.

And some people are older than me.

It's the way it goes.

I am much younger than you now. I am the future.

The future is always hypothetical and never exists.

For you, yes. I will be alive after 30 years from now. You are old and dont have much life left.

Hopefully you will.

But hope is no guarantee of success.

I am young or younger, is probably a statement of fact, relative to how we rationalise our short lives.

Though "I am young" is not an achievement per se...Rather, just a statement.

I've just read through the Forum topic entitled "Hardest times of your life".

If ever proof of juvenile non-wisdom was ever needed, you will find it there.

Tell that to Biden, who believed, and advised several times in his 2020 presidential campaign, [said so on his campaign website] that he was running for U.S. Senate. And not a single Democrat, then, thought he was derelict? They are derelict, along with Biden, even now that they admit he always was. All for party; none for one. And they don't thin woke is dead? Buried, man.

Well, Trump has repeatedly appeared to confuse Biden and Obama but has said in the past that he was being sarcastic.

It's extremely hard to confuse Biden. You have to be a genius to do that.

Trump’s cognitive and psychological maturity deficits explain much about the jarring effect of his appearance and the strong reaction he provokes. Thus, beyond the dissonance and shock of witnessing someone so childlike in a position of truly terrifying and awesome power, the underlying fascination and dread of Trump’s presidency emerge not merely from our sense that we don’t know what he will do tomorrow, but also from the sense that he doesn’t know that, either.

I suppose 'ideally, an older individual 'ought have some advantages.

Knowledge, more you grow, more you know, Ideally. both broadly, and their specific field of expertise.
Reputation, more years viewing a potential leader, often gives you more time to study and judge their quality and aims.
. . .

Lots of jobs require regular certification of ability and knowledge.
'Ideally the older individuals are still taking these tests, and regularly studying, applying.
. . . Not 'all jobs though.

I wonder if people would pay for their politicians to regularly take classes in college, could be a cheap online college?
That they 'are actually improving with time.
