I think old people have an unfortunate statistical tendency towards being complete idiots in general, but no, OP, taking away people's right to vote because you don't agree with them is not a good thing.

Exactly this. Don't gently caress with voting rights.

Also, the idea that old people don't have to live with their decisions only makes sense if you think that none of them have children or grandchildren that they care for.

Alternatively, to offset the structural differences which allow older citizens to vote more regularly, divide voters into age brackets and multiply the votes in any given bracket to be equal to a 100% turnout.

How about we make election days a national holiday?

Or extend early voting in all states?

Or have mail in voting available in all states?

Basically we should expand voting rights and not be reducing anyone's votes.
