Still, one Congress can’t obligate any future; so in theory it works for only one year; hence the ‘drastic’ cuts YEAR ONE. Enough of the phony 5/10 yr. plans that don’t do squat.
2nd, only TAXPAYERS will feel they have some say finally; the moocher class is still (IMHO) over 50% and winning; there’s no guarantee of any true Constitutional leaning (I wouldn’t trust a GOP as far as I could throw ‘em) and thus, any true repeal of our Republic ‘founding’.
Like you, I don’t see D.C. giving up the power they’ve co-opted from the People. No judge, who signs their checks, is going to put them in their place (one flaw...again IMHO). As long as this was the SINGLE issue, I’d say yes, go for it, but many a State (CA, the NE corridor) would try to co-opt to ram more shit.
I’m not too keen on the 23% in the Fair Tax either. They call it ‘revenue neutral’....is that neutral to the true function of gov’t per the Constitution, or the current rate? Is the latter, it can be MUCH lower, letting the States deal w/ the rest. I think we should fight using the 9th, 10th and Art. 1 Sect 8; using the words of those of the Founders and have the Left/Judges spinning on their eyebrows trying to re-think some of the most brilliant minds of the time.
It doesn’t seem that the current GOPe is going to do anything to benefit the People anyhow...might as well go full gusto @ the State level and tell D.C. to F* off and restore the Republic (cut off all funding in the process)
I believe you are referring to the article five convention here. The beauty of the article five convention is hat congress must forward any convention approved amendment to the states for ratification. Congress doesn't have a choice. Since the states must ratify any suggested amendment, the opportunity for the marxist states and cities to commit mischief checked. Nonsense simply won't be ratified. And ratification is on a state by state basis so we have a chance to correct progressive evil. Still, I won't hold my breath.
