There is a school of thought that madness is an inherited trait.

That's where the British political system stand out from a number of other, ours is not necessarily any better, we have just been at it a long time , and therefore had more opportunities to perfect the art of deception.

And older people can be just as stupid as younger and some of us younger can be wiser than some older. Age has nothin to do with it. ^_^

I have often wondered,

how old do you have to be before you are called experienced rather than arrogant.

Older Than 18!I`d say at least 19!!LOL
Old is a relative term!
Personally I would have more faith in a M.D. in his 40s-60s than 20s-30s but maybe thats just me?
