Surely they have a lot of experience to know what decision is right for them, and have lived long enough to know if they want to leave or remain? LEAVE OAP's ALONE!

The problem is that many older people have pensions or are already secure in their jobs. Negative impacts of a leave vote will be felt the most by younger people- those looking for jobs for the first time- if less jobs are created. Older people may therefore be more willing to take a risk in this referendum because they arent as likely to lose out if the economy is damaged, whereas many young people (including myself) are very worried about the risks of leaving to jobs, wages, opportunities etc.
