re: What New Amendments Would You Add To The Constitution? Simple Game

quote:

---

1. Term Limits on Senators and Congress Members

This alone would fix 95% of our issues almost overnight.

Illegal immigration violators get the death penalty, no excuses. If you are found inside America without legal papers you lose your head

Abolish welfare

Term limits

No politician can have any money invested. Must be in a trust. Violators get the death penalty .

Politicians must pass a balanced budget.

Term limits is a useless idea. What has Bill Krystol ever been elected to? He has more influence in Washington than half the politicians do and has been a fixture there for at least 30 years. The problem isn't really the politicians. The problem is the industry of politics. Term limits target the people selling the product, not the people making the product. No one is electing those people. They slither in on their own accord and make connections with anyone and everyone in that town and use those connections to keep themselves attached to the apparatus of government independent from whoever is leading that government at any particular moment.

1. Repeal income tax; replace with
Consumption tax

2. All government “regulations” must be voted on by congress one at a time.

3. All government programs will have an end date. If giving away money does not solve the problem, money will be cutoff.

All revenue laws of any kind have to be passed by 60% votes in each house and a 5 year sunset. They can only renewed by 60% votes of each house of Congress.

This includes everything else in the legislation in which the tax is included (so it can't be hidden in an omnibus [or, for example, Obamacare])

While Texas v. White is bullshite and secession is absolutely constitutional (sorry Scalia, we diverge on this point), specifically add secession of a state to the Constitution.
