Asking how old someone is completely defeats the purpose. We've seen how boomers mishandled things and pulled the ladders up behind them so let's not pretend that being old and remembering 1994 "like it was pretty recent" (it wasn't) makes your opinion in any way superior.
It's relevant and recent when the majority of the legislators who passed the law are still in congress
That's exactly my point. We're still living in the reality of laws passed by boomers - hell, we're still being governed by them. That reality doesn't just go away when the boomers acknowledge they fucked it up, they have to actually fix their shit.
