I haven't read the decision yet but it might say they have a constitutional right to buy politicians. They have been doing it right along but now it is sanctioned by the court. They've been doing it with at least some restrictions. Now, currently, they've wiped those out. Something needs to get done, but I'm not sure an amendment is the way. Maybe. It's not easy to do, esp. with the current climate in DC. The problem is,. you can't legislate away a constitutional right. I am still wading my way through the decision but it is clear this was not just a liberal judge/conservative judge thing (sorry). They all concur on some points. Oh yes you can... Prop. 8 in California. It's under judicial review right now for that very issue. Don't bank on it. Roman people too thought the same thing. Roman people? You mean Romans? You must be prepared to defend your liberties or lose them. How? If the Court takes them away, how do you defend them? Buy a gun? If Senate, Congress and the Presidente decide to burn an ammedment and people don't effectively complain then it is gone. ?? Burn an amendment? Hitler, Chavez and many others have done just this in recent times. Seeing Obama toss out corporate debt law so easily with GM, I would be real nervious and have a lot of anxiety if the current governemnt were to tinker with the supreme court or ammendments. In fact much of todays economic issues stem from the lack of accountability of debt, and respect for repayment to others. What GM did was squander/steal $177 billion and no one is going to jail. The white collar, including governemnt now makes the rules their way. Oh... it's all Obama and GMs fault. got it. -- Nom=de=Plume |
