Fortune 500 Company CEOs median age is 58, the same as the Median Age of voting House Members! It's very close but that's Gen X.

You said "the boomers aren't running anything anymore". Stop moving the goalposts.

The goalpost sits where it was placed.

Boomers don't run shit, Gen X is the median CEO and federal House Legislator, and the vast majority of authority in general.
