I agree with most of your general points.
But the gold standard just won’t work today because the U.S. and world economy is too large to hang on a single tiny and volatile commodity demand curve.
And the list of crimes is way too far into the weeds for a constitution.
I just wanted the death penalty for some of them... the others, like booting a politician from office for tax-evasion, I think are required at this point-in-time because nothing less will “be allowed to stick.”
As an example, I offer to you the case of John Murtha and the Haditha Marines; the judiciary ruled that a federal law protecting federal employees from civil suits “while in execution of office” applied to Murtha and he was therefor immune from all slander suits the marines could bring.
