If the people are evil then no amount of laws will corral the evil.

As Jackson said, “ “ John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!”. That is exactly what will happen to any new amendments to the Constitution.

The nub of the problem is that the citizens, since the mid-1800s to early 1900s, were forced into socialist-entitlement and single payer K-12 schools where they learned to be comfortable with tution-free entitlement and the government compulsion to use it. These socialist-entitlment schools were never more than generically lukewarmly Protestant. For more than 40 years they have been godless. Progressives have **always** controlled teacher training and curriculum development and have **always** been pushing at the edges of societal norms and **always** pushing to undermine free markets, freedom, and limited government.

Do that for one to three generations and the nation gets Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Do for another generation and my parents generation thinks Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society is great idea. Forty more years of godless schools and we get a full-blown Marxist and possible foreigner and usurper as a resident of the White House.

THAT is the nub of the problem. More laws and amendments will NOT corral evil and spiritually DEAD hearts.

You couldn’t take the time to read the amendments you slough off.
