What amendments would you propose to the constitution?
Me...
Repeal the 17th amendment.
Repeal the 16th amendment.
Add - An amendment that would create an election method similar to that of the wishes of the founders. Electoral votes are equal to the number of Senate and House Members from each state. Thus, the winner of the state as a whole would get 2 (the senate votes), and then each house district would vote independently for their respective winner. Part 2 of this amendment would require photo identification to vote.
Add - Define life as beginning at conception.
Add - Balanced budget amendment required. Only to be overridden by a 4/5's majority in both houses of Congress, and only for a period of 2 years, during periods of declared recession and with unemployment rates above a level defined by Congress.
Add - All tax increases must pass both houses by a 4/5's majority.
Add - No person shall be made purchase a product or service.
Add - Term Limits of 6 years in the House, and 6 in the Senate.
Add - Budget's must be passed or government WILL shut down. No continuing resolutions permitted.
Yeah, I'd change alot of stuff. More than even above.
What would you do?
