I believe that you are solving problems that already have a solution.

“Hence, an amendment for term limits would certainly be observed if properly drafted. “
The method is already in place, should the people choose to exercise it.

I also see the argument for a balanced budget amendment for what it really is... A forced and neverending tax increase. The budget could not be unbalanced with adherence to the limited scope of government laid out in the Constitution.

Taking the argument that government operating outside constitutional restraint is a valid reason to change the Constitution is disengenuous.

To say that I support “Doing nothing” just because I don’t support doing what you want to do is simply a bald lie.

I support adherence to the limits on government activity enshrined in the Constitution. Limited powers, and clear guidance on what’s not to be done.
