Age and term limits for office are needed now

Let's not keep kicking the can down the road while the geriatric despots occupying the seats of power for several generations at a time sell our future to the highest bidder.

Throw out the current leadership. Every. Single. One.

Throw out anyone touched by the One Ring of corruption given over freely by the Washington establishment to ensure that their hegemony is never challenged.

Make sure they never hold power or influence ever again.

It's high time we had real leaders again. Not boardroom snakes. Men who are willing to go out and march to war ahead of their troops, potentially being one of the first to die in the fray as a result.

We need Leonidas of Sparta, not Nero of Rome.

We as a species are under threat of succumbing to our own neurosis driven to insane levels by the outsized levels of comfort our modern lives made better by technology. We have convinced ourselves we are more civilized than our predecessors.

That couldn't be further from the truth.

Some want us to believe that words themselves are capable of violence because our species has become so deranged from having such a high quality of life that the prospect of having to stalk and kill another creature for sustenance in order to not starve to death is mostly reserved for TV and movie tropes at best.

We mastered agriculture and learned to bend both land and animal to our will, to maximize their respective output via science in order to meet the rising demands of our species sitting comfortably at the top of the food chain with no predators and no rivals anywhere in sight.

Where did it get us?

It placed before us the ungrateful masses who are getting fat off the toil of their ancestors and complaining about it because those aforementioned ancestors might have held views that we today would find abhorrent.

So let's destroy all vestiges to these great people whose feats and sacrifices made everything you see today possible. That's a great idea.

We are inundated by iconoclasts who play on the emotions of others in order to achieve their aims. And we love and revere these iconoclasts so much that we willingly place them in the highest seats of power to ensure that they're well-placed to destroy even common sense and decency if it behooves them to do so.

It's time to stop placing power and trust into weak people who have never struggled a day in their lives.

It's time to stop entrusting our futures to those who have fattened themselves in their ivory towers on the toil of their constituents and sold their futures for immediate prosperity and influence.

And, most importantly, it's time to stop allowing geriatric people who won't be around to reap the consequences of the seeds of discord that they sow today because they'll have long since expired from the disease of old age by the time the fruits of destruction they are cultivating today are ripe and ready for the picking.

We need upper age limits for all elected office now.

We need term limits that don't exceed 8 years in office in any capacity now.

We need the lives of our elected officials to be so transparent we get to examine the quality of their stool in the toilet every time they take a shit if that's what it takes to root out corruption - NOW!

From the ashes of the establishment, we can rebuild a system in the image of that one that was intended by the forefathers of our country.

From the ashes of the establishment, this nation can be reborn.

Don't fear the flames of retribution or the immediate pain that comes with breaking your addiction to comfort.

No endeavor is more worth your toil and sacrifice than ensuring a future for your descendants that doesn't involve being under the totalitarian boot of a control structure threatening to ensure that your children are born inside the matrix, never to come out.

When you're asked in the afterlife what you did to stop the descent of humanity into madness, make sure your answer isn't "Nothing".
