Amendments incoming
What ammendment are you hoping for?
- Prohibit the federal government from regulating or interfering in activity that takes place within state boundaries. Meaning if you have a small business and your business doesn't cross state lines they cannot regulate you.
- Require Congress to balance a budget annually
- Prohibit Federal Agencies from creating "white paper" laws (legislating via policy) Like the ATF, EPA, Ect...
- Allow 2/3rds of state legislatures can vote to overturn a supreme court decision
- It takes a 7 justice super majority to overturn a law passed by congress
- Affirmation to limit Federal power only to Article I Section 8 of the Constitution
- States have the right to sue the Federal Government
-
-2/3rds of the states can vote to overturn federal law
"Allow 2/3rds of state legislatures can vote to overturn a supreme court decision"
Retarded, courts exist for a reason.
If you're that butt blasted about something that you can get 2/3, have a constitutional convention.
Constitutional conventions exist for a reason.
Most of these were from the 2015 Convention of the States proposed amendments
do you think your rights are given to you by the courts
?
I understand your point
They are "given to you" by other peoples' blood.
I agree but more depth and breadth required there
Courts enforce the law, if you don't like a supreme court decision, then put whatever right it is into the constitution.
The liberals in the supreme court KNOW how it will rule on 2A cases, so they make efforts to make sure that it does not take them.
If the Supreme Court started taking them, a whole bunch of laws would be struck down.
I mean the big ones for me.
- Require Congress to balance a budget annually
- Prohibit Federal Agencies from creating "white paper" laws (legislating via policy) Like the ATF, EPA, Ect...
- Affirmation to limit Federal power only to Article I Section 8 of the Constitution
I agree with those for sure.
I am thinking of that
Or when one of very many regular natural disasters occurs.
because technically Article I section 8 doesn't actually say that we should have a standing Army, just a Navy
Oh, I was talking about the budget thing.
oh
big time reforms for sure
I would say let states handle it, but in practice it doesn't work well
As in, if you have to always pass a balanced budget, what happens if you NEED to spend more than you have?
if you have corrupt dinn du's in charge of New Orleans during Katrina
not the the Feds did much better, but its a disaster...it's suppose to be a shit show
There are plenty of calamities of old, and more and more fresh new ones that could happen at any moment.
Your handling of it isn't supposed to be a shit show.
OH FUCK! I forgot. No more Dual Citizens in congress or federal appointments, NO foreign lobbies ect...
Australia has the no Dual Citizen rule.
That said, there are many, many things on which you do not want to imitate us.
I want to go there I have never been
I met Australians in Afghanistan when I was deployed
At my mother's home there are native hens, pademelons, ring tail possums, echidnas, and eastern barred bandicoots.
Well, the occasional echidna passes through.
(We have a lot of ant nests.)
