And no one past grade 12 is eligible to be a Girl Scout. Running the country seems like it's at least as mission-critical as selling Samosas.

That's a silly argument.

That's a false equivalency.

Airline pilots have a mandatory retirement age based on health and safety studies associated with the risks and requirements of flying a plane.

Girl scout age requirements, as you might imagine, aren't based on the same criteria.
