I’m behind this. The president is a dictator, the congress have abrogated their constitutional duties in favor of corporate pay offs, and the judicial branch has sold out their principles for Washington cocktail party invitations. What more do we have to lose by trying this? Damn them all, full speed ahead!
You do realize that a balanced budget amendment with teeth could result in massive tax increases, right?
Rather than run from danger run to safety. So far I have seen nebulous ideas and half thought out Amendments (Levin’s). Identifying problems and speaking forcefully against them doesn’t mean his idea of a solution is the best. Any plan that leaves the factions unmolested does not remove the danger. Before altering the structure lets alter the staff.
“...and the judicial branch has sold out their principles for Washington cocktail party invitations.”
It is far more sinister than you suspect.
