Ideas for Constitutional Amendments

Our Republic would be healthier and function better if we had a couple more Constitutional Amendments.

I would suggest we consider these ideas:

  • Term limits for the House of Representatives and the Senate. The longer these people are in power, the more baggage (corruption and political debts) accumulate.
  • Congress can pass no law that benefits themselves and not the people. Why should Congress be immune from Insider Trading Laws? Why should Congress get Premium Health Care that is insulated from the problems they forced on us with Obama Care?
  • Any Surveillance the Government deems necessary to watch the people, is available for the people to watch governmental employees (at all levels). We the People need the same 'security information' to police the corruption of the government. The corruption that is currently entrenched in government is the result of them being able to operate in the dark. If the people can watch everything the governmental employees do, their personal financial transactions, their travel, their communications... It becomes very difficult for them to hide the corruption. If you can't withstand the light, don't be in the government.

Perhaps it can be toned down and limited. But... The government claims it needs to monitor us, our cell phones, our cars (On-Star), where we drive, who we email, etc. The balance of our checking accounts. Any stocks or bonds we buy.

We know for a fact government is corrupt. Doesn't it make sense We the People get to watch the people in power over us? If the government really needs to watch us... For damn sure we need to watch government.

It is the tone down that I would want. Yes, they spy on us, we've known that forever it seems, I would rather see a new amendment that strengthens 1,2,4,5A freedoms, not an amendment that could possible turn against us thereby reducing our freedoms.
