If the states called a constitutional convention then this crap could be reigned in very quickly.
There have been more than the required 2/3rds of States with applications to Congress to call an Article V Convention. Presently, there are already more than the required 34 States with applications for several subjects, including Tax Limitation, Balanced Budget, and Apportionment.
Congress has simply ignored the fact. They’ve been round filed by the Judiciary Committee in the Senate.
There are currently 38 States who’ve announced their intention to fight this mandate. What are the odds, the GOP in Congress would take this opportunity with all eyes on Congress and the flouting of the Constitution to demand recognition of the calls for an Article V Convention ?
Would those 38 States that are mouthing objections at this point go so far as to get their legislatures to send a unified call for an Article V Convention to consider an Amendment barring the Federal government from requiring an individual to purchase or penalizing a failure to purchase any good or service ?
