NatakuNoxIt already was. Fun fact, Penn Wharton just came out with a full breakdown of federal spending as it pertains to civil benefits with regards to your age. In other words, how much the government spends on its citizens according to age. For fiscal year 2025, the federal government is spending $43,700 for every person over the age of 64. Conversely, it spends $4,300 on every person under the age of 26. That works out to the government spending 10x more on elderly people than children.
The full breakdown is here if anyone is interested. We’re great again!!

American retirees receive over twice as much in total federal outlays as working-age adults and six times more than children and young adults. These ratios are even larger on a per-capita basis. Expenditures on retirees are projected to rise even more.
Representative democracy only represents those who vote and the olds have more incentive unfortunately.
Compulsory voting would be great except most folks are dumbasses.
Democracy is the lie that a million voices are smarter than one, but idk what a better alternative is tbh.
