I'll point out that the founding fathers of our country disagree with your individual approach and wrote into the Constitution certain age requirements for holding federal office. US House rep = 25 years
I get it.

At 25, you have enough emotional and mental maturity to be a US House Rep member, but you still don't have enough emotional and mental maturity to officiate a D1 basketball game. Iow, you can help run a country of 300 million people at 25, but not a college basketball game.
