I guess the question is: what problem are you trying to solve by instituting age limits and term limits?

If the issue is the advantage of incumbency and having entrenched politicians with large campaign funding operations behind them, then maybe a better way of solving this would be campaign finance reform that prevents private dollar donations from non-individuals and heavy restrictions on how much an individual can contribute.

All that term limits and age limits in Congress would achieve is setting an artificial barrier for those who do the job well while setting up a new group of people to benefit from the legislature’s dysfunction.

Boost is still working for me. Not sure why.

Based on the actual article, it seems like the coal mining operations is not technically illegal. They’ve been given a 28-day notice to stop operating as of a week ago and they are currently appealing the decision. I’m not saying that I support the coal company but I think the headline is a little misleading.
