What folks miss are several things in the 14th amendment - that having ever breached an oath to the constitution by supporting insurrection you cannot serve as a senator or congressman.

The other is the automatic repudiation of debts incurred to support insurrection. How much US debt can be repudiated under this clause? It's a question worth serious research and consideration. Would it bankrupt Soros, the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds? Just a question.

How much US debt can be repudiated under this clause?

I read that to mean at least a whole bunch of pensions. But you are right, it could have much wider implications.

Also, this caught my eye:

A rage for paper money, for an abolition of debts, for an equal division of property, or for any other improper or wicked project, will be less apt to pervade the whole body of the Union than a particular member of it;

I guess we lost that one...

Thanks for putting this together!
