    At age 38, he’s also nearly 20 years younger than the median member of the House, most of whom were born before Pong was released.

    There’s your real problem!

        I’d argue it is a massive problem. Your legislative branch is so far behind the times that it isn’t even funny anymore - they do not have any real insight into what is happening and why. I understand that you do not have to be an expert at IT stuff to be a good legislator, but your experience should at least reflect the experience of a common member of society, and they are so far away from that that it hurts my brain.

          It is a massive problem, but it’s still one of many massive problems.

          Agreed their experience should reflect a commoner’s experience. Hence why I will always say it is 100% BS that they get their own special health insurance, and many other such unfair things.
