We do it in 17 pages and the Obama Care bill took over 2,000+ pages and it still a screwed up mess.
I guess the founders knew that the Scum of the Earth would be attracted to politics, that's why they made it hard for them to make changes. Checks and balances set up conflicts between stupid, ignorant, corrupt egos.
It's taken these idiots over 200 years to get us to this point. That's pretty good, and a tribute to the founders' understanding of human nature.
