Hear, hear! Article V Convention of the States!

I've already started work on a few proposals for amendments.

A thought exercise for the Tax amendment:

Consider representative apportionment of taxes. By that, I mean congress to decide how much to raise in taxes. After that, the amount to be raised gets apportioned between the members of Congress (1/2 to Senate, 1/2 to House). The states then receive a tax bill for their representation (sum of their Senator’s bill and their Representatives).

This allows the states to raise taxes to pay their bill as best and most appropriate to that state.
