The Constitution is Junk

[hondo 50]

What if you found a copy in a really old and large suitcase? Would that be junk in the trunk?

 

[JohnDB]

That is not true. Amendments such as the Twelfth and Seventeenth, and the statute for the proportionment of the House of Representatives changed the formulation of the checks and balances very differently, and that effects the deliberation of issues, the laws that are enacted, and the enforcement of those laws.


And such still exist, because the State Department cannot provide a reliable government charter system for the oppressed, or otherwise, developing societies.


Just because the Constitution is better than any other does not mean there are no
consequences for its imperfections. We are at that juncture in the advanced evolution
of the American governing system. Miscalculations, or inadequacies, that did not seem
to matter, now matter. We are enduring the consequences of the overrun of an
erroneous self-government experiment. Domestic tranquility has been forfeited and
the improperly formulated political parties have appropriated the people’s sense of
justice.


That means the checks and balances do not work right.


That is because the balance of power does not provide the branches with a "will of its own," because the branches are inherently cooperative entities for the processing of law.


Have you any idea how difficult it is to work within the labyrinth of the legislators’ variable obligations that have to be coordinated to pass legislation?

And then they have endless committee investigations to attend! Who has time to read or write legislation?

You are not representing the facts with any sort of integrity....ie the truth is you are a sock puppet looking for flaming...as in flame bait.....as if this is your best use of your time.
You are truly boring me....
If you could do better you would. But as it is I thought to explain why I will refuse to see your posts after this.

Thank God you brought this to our attention.

I'm a commie now!

Weewee on the People. Government off the People, Buy the People, and Force the People

All Communist countries call themselves "republics." That is not a distortion of the term; it indicates the elitist oligarchy that defines every republic, whether elected or restricted to one party.

Pathetic NPCs want to identify themselves as agents of a Supreme Power. They believe that because a totalitarian oligarchy has the power to make them believe such an unrealistic fantasy. Proof that whatever we are told from those who place themselves above us is make-believe.

It's out-of-date.

Electing Is Choosing Some Sheltered Elitist to Do All Your Voting on the Issues for You

That horse-and-buggy era knew as little about politics as it knew about technology.

Crunch, Crunch! Squish, Squish!

Don't try to pacify us with your Master-serving fatalism. We far outnumber the ruling class and can crush them like grapes. Time to quit whining and start making wine.

There were some founding fathers who never signed off on it.

Greatest of all was Thomas Jefferson. He was sent away to France because of his democratic ideas, which were an existential threat to the Founding Fodder.

There is supposed to be a system of checks and balances that are supposed to prevent corruption, but as you can tell, after 248 years of exercising it, not only is there wide spread corruption, but there are incapacitated people being elected into the system.

This is the fault of the electorate, not the structure of the constitution.

Any system will collapse if the people in it lack ethics.

Here’s why:

Ethics are like the glue that holds a system together. Without them, people might start prioritizing their own interests over the greater good, leading to corruption, mistrust, and chaos. For example:

• In a workplace, unethical behavior can lead to toxic environments, low morale, and even legal issues.
• In a society, a lack of ethics can erode trust in institutions, create inequality, and spark conflict.
• Even in smaller systems like friendships or families, unethical behavior can break bonds and destroy relationships.

So, while systems might technically function for a while without ethics, they’re bound to crumble eventually because they’re built on shaky foundations.
