We already have age limits at the lower end. Why are people so against age limits at the upper end?

Eventually one might come to the conclusion that there is no way to have people in power and it not be abused.

And yet, communities have collective needs, and require that some of us administer those needs. What are we to do? Embrace anarchy or libertarianism? Not for me I don’t think. Just push for systems that create positive, pro-social incentive structures. It is the best I think we can do.

You're using "anarchy" as analogous to "chaos". Embrace each other rather than a group that claims power using violence.
