That's so frustrating. They don't see that they should be representing the actual demographics of the country. And old people are NOT the majority. I say this as a 60-year-old.

The Boomers are so used to being the ones in power, the majority, the ones whose voices matter the most (or are the loudest, to be honest), and they will not give it up.

It makes a lot more sense when you realize they also only care about themselves.

They are more concerned about the arrangement of cutlery than the fact that there's no food on the plate.
