You're absolutely right. Didn't even cross my mind, and I retired at 55. Guess I've become conditioned to the Senate being a nursing home. Good illustration of what media conditioning has brought me to tolerate.
So many here move their elderly congress. I think it’s pitiful that they can’t enjoy their lives. I retired early too. It’s awesome! Why work when you don’t have too? Travel is easier. Sports and other activities are able to be done. People are nuts to work til death.
