Let you grandparents set the rules of how your life should be. Bonus points if they watch fox news every day. Best way to understand why.

Older people are not representative of the population, it unreasonable to expect someone born in the 40-50s era to understand the importance of privacy or the social media world of someone growing up today and more importantly shape legislation for future decades - laws are very long living.

It is certainly is possible, but without hetrogenous mixture whether black , women or the young the policies will not be inclusive

Environmental policies, tax, debt , lack of investment in education all favour older people . It is not just because older people vote more. They are lot more likely to know older politician to influence their decision, who is lot more likely to understand and empathize of the problems of his peer group.

The voting bloc influence the baby boomers is well established.
