I’ve not read the book. I listen to his show every day. I’d like to ask you a question. Who enforces these new amendments? I think the most likely outcome would be the federal government, with their massive resources and partisans, would simply ignore the amendments, maybe get a few judges to take a dump on the states, and we’d just have more of the same. I’m for the process. If it works, great, but I don’t think it will work. I’m also for skipping it and working on something that will work.

I think Marks amendments are a starting point. I would take far more power from the feds. For example, judicial review from the courts, the right to tax from congress, repeal of the 17th amendment. Repeal of the 16th amendment. Institution of a notational retail sales tax. Elimination of transfer payments of any type. Prohibit property taxes of any kind. These in addition to Marks amendments or in replacement of some will fix our runaway government for the next 250 years. The problem is getting it implemented. Consider though the likely alternatives, a COS, or acquiescence to tyranny, civil war. IMHO the COS is the best option.
