About 30 years ago I remember telling someone that I believed that America was heading for some sort of revolution. I said that I hoped it wouldn’t be too bloody and that we start over again with the same Constitution.

That was before the Tom Clancy book in which the entire Congress was wiped out in a Terrorist attack and Jack Ryan had the opportunity to do just that. Start from scratch.

Look at Post WW II, Germany and Japan were completely destroyed, they reformed and came back at least for a while bigger and stronger.

Hopefully, we don’t go thru something like that, but in this day and age anything is possible.

I think our current constitution if followed would eliminate most of our problems, if get destroyed and come back should we adopt the same constitution, YES but with some tweaks.

Basic stuff like term limits on Congress, more teeth int he 10th amendment that would limit the Federal Government from so much control over our daily lives, sound money, elimination of the Federal Reserve, etc.

I’m a firm believer that the closer to the people the better the government, once you advance beyond the State Level Government, ultimately it turns out bad for everyone.
