My wife's little brother who is disabled thought our baby would be 3 months old when born.
That's dumb, the baby is obviously ~9 months old when born.
This has always bothered me about the bullshit pro-life argument. If life starts at conception, then clearly we're making people wait an additional 9 months to vote.
There is actually one problem with counting age from birth: premature babies are behind on everything! Of course we could correct that by saying that they were minus three months old when born (or however early they are).
That's it, we'll have to get rid of democracy now, there's too many flaws.
We never had a proper democracy, so consider it done/moot.
