Tweaking the constitution isn’t likely to have any good effect.
What if the tweaking is to remove previous tweaking?
Agreed, esp by the pack of drooling imbeciles selling themselves as ‘smart’ and ‘expert’ in both worthless pol parties. No, lets leave it completely alone until sanity again prevails in this country. Any changes now will wind up a cluster bomb later on. This is like begging the same crop of bums to write and pass a term limits law.Nothing that happens in DC ends well.
Most of our elected officials don't abide by it now, many don't even know what's in it or what it means. I don't see how this type of amendment will do anything except be a ruse to cover for the increase in the debt ceiling.
i agree. Unless they can author enough clauses that would stop or allow certain types of “balance” to the budget, it will be worthless.
If debts + taxes = spending, isnt the budget balanced? The problem we have, is we dont like the way it is currently balanced and we dont like how big the numbers are on either side of the equation. An amendment wont guarantee that we get either thing we want.
Whats to say we get spending, taxes, and debt down, but then have a major crisis like a war, which would force us to borrow more than Constitutionally allowed?
