Copyright
Limit copyright to 20 years like patents, with no renewals, because renewals just protect the profits of Disney and other wealthy lobbyists.
Make DMCA takedown abuse a felony because it is used to stifle free speech.

Corruption
Issue massive cash rewards for exposing illegal or unethical behavior by government officials. Turn the rats against each other.
Ban congressmen and their family members from owning individual stocks, to stop flagrant insider trading like that by Nancy and Paul Pelosi.
Ban all levels of government from attempting to influence public opinion aside from direct quotable speech by specific elected officials; government should respect and reflect the will of the people.
Make it a felony for any elected official or government employee to knowingly lie to the public, or to materially misrepresent facts to the public the same way it is a crime for members of the public to lie to government.
Require all laws — like vaccine mandates and insider trading bans — to also apply to members of Congress without any exemptions.
Aggressively rotate out DC politicians with term limits before they can fully develop their corrupt networks.
Make a point of bringing in total political outsiders as often as possible.
Forbid everyone at the FDA or family members from ever working at any pharma company, and forbid all pharma employees or family members from ever working for the FDA, until the FDA is eliminated and its functions transferred to the states.
Make all government expenditures, down to the dollar, without exception, easily available for public inspection.
Hire the elderly, who often know how things work and have a lot of available time, to watch all public contracts for excessive spending and corruption.

Crime, the Law, and Prisons
Openly address the extremely disproportionate violent crime rate by black men relative to all others, instead of hiding it.
Abolish all "hate crime" laws because they inevitably result in unequal application of the law, favoring some groups over others, and violate the First Amendment. We already have laws against crime.
Implement public honors and a large cash reward for anyone who captures and flogs a looter or shoplifter.
Require all police to wear functioning bodycams at all times when interacting with the public or prisoners, all video to be used as evidence.
End civil forfeiture because it is theft by government.
Ban private prisons because they bribe judges to feed them more prisoners.
Legalize marijuana at the federal level because it is less harmful than alcohol.
Allow free speech for all prisoners so that we can learn about injustice.
Segregate prisons by biological sex. No men should ever be imprisoned among women, nor women among men.
Define "right to a speedy trial" to mean that a verdict must be reached within one year of imprisonment, defaulting to innocent.
Compensate those found innocent for their unjust time in jail. The money should come from the budget of the agency which imprisoned them.
End selective enforcement of laws by DAs. We should have minimal laws, but they should be enforced 100% of the time to avoid cases like Hunter Biden's never being charged with running the Biden Crime Family bribery racket.
First-time criminals should be given the option of flogging rather than imprisonment. Imprisonment creates hardened criminals who learn bad habits in prison.
Anyone who instigates a lawsuit and loses should have to pay his opponent's legal fees so that the suit itself was not a financial punishment. This is the law is most of the world already.

Discrimination
Forbid government from counting or classifying citizens by race.
End racism by refusing to talk about it, as Morgan Freeman suggested in his famous interview with Mike Wallace.
Prohibit any special access to government services regardless of a person's status, wealth, or payment.
Eliminate all government favoritism or exclusion of citizen by race; therefore no Affirmative Action, nor exclusion of whites or Asians from any programs.

Education
Offer a basic citizenship, numeracy, and literacy test for a high school diploma, administered by the US Office of Weights and Measures.
Fund college with temporary income share agreements, not loans, to give colleges a true motive to help students.
Let middle school and high school students test out of any subject and study whatever they want on their own, so they don't waste their time.
Require any university which gets government funding to award class credits and degrees purely for passing objective tests, no classes required.
Require elementary, middle, and high school classes on how to avoid getting trapped in debt.
Create state-level virtual universities of the very best teachers and classes, online, free for all students of any age.
Allow school choice, where parents can spend their tax money on any school in the state, public or private.
Promote practical education, such as plumbing and HVAC, but also promote reading the Latin and Greek classics, especially in the original languages.
Require middle school and high school courses to teach what rights are guaranteed by the Constitution, and how to sue for them.

Food
Make is a serious crime to introduce any insect-based food for humans without prominent warnings on the food that it includes insects.
Ban all seed oils as not appropriate for human consumption because they are poisonous, especially rapeseed oil, aka "Canola" oil.

Foreign Policy
Put compensating tariffs on foreign goods from countries with lower wages or lower environmental standards, to protect the US manufacturing base.
Seek national economic self-sufficiency in all necessary goods like oil and medicines so that the US may never be extorted by a foreign country.
Impose an absolute ban on dual citizenship, because it always creates conflicting loyalties. China prohibits dual citizenship for this reason.
Stop sending taxpayer money to Israel. They can take care of themselves.

Freedom of Speech
Create a Constitutional Amendment explicitly prohibiting all levels of government from "advising" or influencing any media on what to report or suppress.
Prohibit discrimination in hiring and firing based on political activities outside of work.
Revoke all laws against "hate speech" because such laws violate the First Amendment.

Homelessness
Require mandatory prison time for hard drug use, because most homeless are addicts, and former addicts testify that enforced sobriety in prison saved them.

Immigration
Issue permanent shoot-to-kill orders against anyone invading US borders. This was normal in all parts of the world until recently.
Make everyone who enters the US illegally permanently ineligible for citizenship, green cards, employment, and welfare, except for any who help to convict and imprison their own employers for employing illegal labor.
Build a wall along the southern US border, to protect low-wage American workers from illegal competition.
Deport everyone who entered the US illegally. Exception: grant US citizenship to any illegal alien who gets his employer convicted of employing him and imprisoned. This would be yet more effective than a wall.
Mandate federal prison time for all employers of illegal aliens.
Eliminate all H1B and similar visas unless the incoming worker is paid at least twice as much as an American would be for that job, to prevent, eg, Facebook's abuse of H1B.

Infrastructure
Give official federal priority to fast and cheap rail transit to city centers as in Europe, in place of subsidies and favoritism for highways and airports.
Attempt to re-achieve US energy independence to help keep us out of foreign wars and to improve our balance of trade.
Officially disparage and refuse to grant permits to sterile modern architecture because it is merely cheap shit pretending to be classy.
Return to classical public art, perhaps with subtle new touches. Refuse to spend money on crappy modern public "art".
Create pedestrian-friendly and completely safe town squares with fountains in every town, with a particular emphasis on introducing young people to each other.

Leaf Blowers
Ban gasoline powered leaf blowers in dense residential areas. They pollute with dirty engines, blow dust around, and make a lot of noise.

Legislation
Restrict the commerce clause’s interpretation back to what it was before the 1937 Supreme Court case "National Labor Relations Board v. Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp." This reversal would greatly reduce the size of the Federal government.
Eliminate all regulations and rules. There must be only laws enacted by elected representatives of the people, and never any regulations and rules created by unelected bureaucrats.
Require lesser authorities to defy unconstitutional laws and orders.
Prohibit all "states of emergency" because they are used to subvert the Constitution, as was done in the Wuhan Virus scamdemic. We should be ready for emergencies at all times anyway.
Create a Constitutional amendment to explicitly state that no part of the Constitution may be suspended ever, for any reason, for any amount of time.
Anyone attempting to suspend any part of the Constitution for any amount of time, especially for an "emergency", shall be guilty of a capital offense.
Require all federal laws to be read in their entirety by all legislators before they may vote on them, to discourage lobbyist-written bills.
Require all federal laws to be clear enough that a 12th-grade education is sufficient to understand them perfectly, for more public participation.
Limit bill length to 30 normal-sized pages of normal sized font, for more clarity about what is in the bill, and more public participation.
Promote the principle of very few laws, very well enforced. "The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws." -Tacitus.
Guarantee the right of the president to fire anyone within executive branch at any time, especially long-time "civil servants" like Fauci.
Eliminate anti-competitive imposition of "safety" costs on small businesses because those laws are almost all written to benefit large businesses.
Require 20 year sunset provisions for all federal laws, requiring a new vote on whether the law is to be continued after it expires.
Allow the public to vote to revoke the corporate charter of any company which they feel has abused the public, companies like Pfizer.
Publicly post all bills two weeks in advance of Congressional vote, to give the public a chance to read them.
Let the president have a line item veto.
Repeal the poorly-named "Patriot Act".

Medical Care
Repeal the PREP act. All vaccines and other medical products must come with unlimited liability for manufacturers at all times.
Establish a Constitutional ban on lockdowns, mask requirements, and vaccine mandates. They must never be allowed under any circumstances.
Prosecute everyone involved with the creation of Wuhan Virus, especially the mass murderers Fauci, Collins, and Daszak.
Prosecute everyone who abused his or her power to mandate the dangerous and ineffective mRNA injection, whether in government, schools, or workplaces.
Require short clear written presentation of all non-emergency medical costs before treatment for market discipline of medical costs.
Absolve all patients from legal liability for medical care bills whose costs they did not agree to in writing in advance of treatment, aside from emergency care.
Require all emergency medical charges to be limited to moderate fixed prices by law, because there can be no market in emergencies.
Require medical insurers to give a coverage response to a proposed non-emergency medical bill within one day, again to control medical costs.
Allow import of prescription drugs from Canada and from every other country because the import restrictions are a scam to boost profits.
Make it a felony to offer doctors or other medical providers payments to recommend any drug or treatment.
Ban the practice of charging higher prices for the same medicine or treatment when the patient is uninsured. See image below.
Establish a Constitutional right to visit in person and hug any relative who wants visitors in a hospital or nursing home with no exceptions for any disease on either side. It must be their choice alone, never an administrator's.
Prohibit all hospitals and nursing homes from benefitting financially from the deaths of their patients, as they did with the Midazolam Murders.

Mens Rights
Ban kangaroo courts in corporate HR and University Title IX departments to protect men's rights.
Mandate paternity testing at birth to give all men the certainty which encourages paternal care. Eliminate all child support obligation for a non-biological father unless he legally adopts the child.
Require courts to assume that a woman of age, voluntarily alone in a bedroom with a man, has consented to sex.
Grant equal post-conception rights to men.

Military
Eliminate the US Army and instead require mandatory training and arming all sane non-felon adult male US citizens to defend US territory ONLY, organized into well-regulated militias.
Implement a mandatory death penalty for anyone who deliberately attempts to send US troops off of US soil.
Create a constitutional amendment prohibiting interventionism; American soldiers must never fight except against invasion of America, per George Washington's advice.
Ban gays from the military because they are corrosive to morale and because they spread the disease of homosexuality there, not to mention anal warts.
Ban trannies from the military because they are mentally ill.
Eliminate NATO, because Europe is not America.
Close all US military bases in foreign countries.
Create a Constitutional amendment prohibiting all interference in the affairs of foreign countries, especially sending weapons.

Money
Define the US currency to be one ounce of 0.999 pure silver, to be called an Ounce. Silver by weight worked well for thousands of years.
Prohibit the creation of any term for US currency except weight of 0.999 pure silver. So "pound" is OK for a pound of 0.999 pure silver, but "dollar" and all other such non-weight terms are to be prohibited because they can be redefined to devalue to the currency.
Require every business and government agency to accept silver metal by weight as payment.
Establish a Constitutional right to pay all debts and taxes with physical silver by weight, so that everyone can preserve savings as silver metal.
Ban all taxes on buying or selling silver. Such taxes are punishment of those who try to avoid being cheated by the Federal Reserve.
Forbid businesses from requiring payment in any form which can be blocked by government, the way Canada blocked the bank accounts of legitimate protestors who opposed deadly injection mandates.
Create a Constitutional prohibition on political discrimination as a reason to deny banking or payment system access.
Require classification and prominent marking of all non-metal payment instruments as "Not money, only a debt, MAY DEFAULT", because they are merely debts.
Eliminate the requirement for anyone to ever accept or pay with paper money because all paper money eventually becomes worthless.
Legally define all banking as either storage of silver for a fee, or participation in the bank's lending risk and bank run risk in return for an interest payment.
Eliminate the Federal Reserve entirely. Let the open market set interest rates at all times.
Limit the annual federal budget by Constitutional amendment to 1% of GDP with no exceptions, especially not for "emergencies".
Completely and permanently eliminate the national debt. Require the federal budget to be paid out of current revenue, similar to the "Swiss brake".
Ban asset managers, especially Blackrock and Vanguard, from voting the underlying shares that they don’t own but are merely managing.

Privacy
Create an amendment establishing a Constitutional right to privacy because it is not perfectly clear from existing law that we have this right.
Prohibit all levels of government from collecting or holding information on any citizen except as absolutely necessary for census, taxation, criminal investigation, or driver's licenses.
Prohibit the federal government from monitoring the activities or location or even knowing the home address of anyone not currently accused of a specific crime. So no mass license plate reading or cell phone tracking without a warrant naming the specific person and the crime.
Require all private people and companies which collect or distribute home addresses and phone numbers to prominently display all of the owners' home addresses and phone numbers, and all similar information they collect. That is, demand equality of exposure.
Prohibit airlines and other transportation from demanding identity papers. Everyone should be able to travel anonymously, as we did before.
Prohibit websites from including 3rd party javascript, especially that from Google or Facebook, without a prominent notice that every keystroke or mouse movement etc is visible to Google or Facebook and that those sites may have altered the page content. It's spyware and most people are unaware of it.

Real Estate
Completely eliminate the mortgage interest deduction and all policies which serve only to keep houses expensive, because they cripple new family formation.
Aggressively implement policies which drive down the price of a house as much as possible, to give young families space to rear children.
Prohibit all foreigners, including everyone with any non-US citizenship, dual citizenship, or any foreign passport, from owning any land in the US.
Require notarization and publication of all bids on real estate to slow down the routine fraudulent bidding by realtors.
Require a publicly advertised price for a house to be a legally binding offer to immediately sell at that price, the same way it is with toasters and all other goods.
Prohibit government loan guarantees of all kinds, particularly housing or college loan guarantees, because they simply raise the cost of housing and of college.

Regulation and States Rights
Eliminate all federal government agencies outside of the military and commerce; everything else belongs to the states, as is written in the Constitution.
Eliminate the FBI, CIA, NSA, NIH, FDA, and CDC in particular, with their functions transferred to the states, as is written in the Constitution.
Allow girl scouts to bake their own cookies at home.

Sex
Strictly separate multiple-person bathrooms for men and women, whether a person is mentally ill with the fashionable "trans" disease or not.
Ban gay men from adopting, since the majority are gay because they were molested as boys, and then frequently go on to become molesters themselves.
Ban gay men from being alone with boys, ever, because most gays were created through homo-pedophilia.
Ban the sodomy or trans flag from any property funded by tax money, however indirectly. Only official government flags may be displayed.
Define the promotion of homosexuality or trans ideology to children as child sex abuse.
Revert the classification of transsexuality to be the mental illness which is obviously is.
Revert the classification of male homosexuality to be what it really is: a contagious life-shortening mental illness.

Schools
Ban the rainbow sodomy/pedo/trans flag from all schools.
Require middle and high school courses in law, taxes, personal finance, insurance, coding, cooking, home repair, car repair, self-defense, survival skills, etiquette, public speaking, and stress management.
Require daily weight lifting and running in PE classes at every level including publicly funded universities.

Taxes
Eliminate all income and sales taxes, to be replaced with Georgist land value taxes and import tariffs.
Swap the current maximum tax rates on income from work vs capital gains until Georgism is implemented and income tax eliminated.
End Prop 13 in California, to be replaced with a land value tax, with zero taxes on buildings.
Prohibit sales tax on used property which was already taxed when first sold. Ultimately eliminate sales tax in favor of a land value tax.
Prohibit all public sector unions, especially teachers unions and prison guard unions. Government workers may not unionize against the people they serve.

Voting
Make Jan 6th a national holiday honoring the political prisoners who protested the 2020 election fraud.
Arrest Pelosi, Ray Epps, and the other FBI goons of Jan 6th for conspiracy, entrapment, and incitement to violence.
Prosecute everyone in the DOJ who fabricated charges against the election fraud protestors entrapped by Pelosi and the FBI.
Eliminate all voting machines in favor of paper ballots alone because it is insane to give centralized control of the totals to Dominion and similar companies.
Eliminate mail-in voting or drop boxes; have only paper ballots with photo ID in person at a local school on that one day only, counted by each party.
Require proof of US citizenship with photo ID to vote.
Publicly fund all congressional and presidential campaigns.
Set term limits for Congress: 6x for the House, and twice for the Senate, so 12 years each, maximum.
Require a roll call vote in both houses of Congress on the verbatim topic of any petition with more than 10% popular support, without amendments.

Those pensions should be reduced or eliminated.


I would not want to be the one to break the news to a bunch of retired navy Seals that they get no pension.

What I meant was that pensions should not be part of government employment benefits.

I'm not necessarily opposed to fulfilling existing pensions, but I think that government pensions as a part of promised employment benefits should be reduced or eliminated.

Comes nowhere even close to the amount raised by the income tax. We have about $3.5 trillion in imports.

Income taxes are about $2 trillion.

YEP. $350B is just what the government needs to pay for the military, courts, and roads. The Military is ludicrously bloated. At $250B for the military and $100B for everything else, we'd still be far and away the numbah won spender. Our military is bloated with leather interior luxury planes for Army and Air Force Generals, Littoral Combat Ships that never worked and ended up many times original projected cost, etc. We could have an unbelievable Army of divisions of infantry armed to the teeth with ATGMs, the latest nightvision gear, etc. etc. instead we have the shitty short bus Stryker and the F-35 Boondoggle whose stealth was obsolete against the latest crop of radars already deployed by Russia and China before it flew it's first combat mission, that manuevers worse than any 2nd gen fighter jet, and costs a small fortune to fly per hour, many times what an F-15 or F-16 costs even at their advanced age and parts costs.

Institute an AMT on Corporate Taxation of 7% for any corp with more than $10M in revenue. Despite CATO propaganda, Amazon, Google,etc.pay around 2-3%, nothing like the advertised rates. A waitress in a slow rural diner doesn't pay 2-3% in income tax. That'll leave some stuff for lowering the debt.

The best answer is to repeal the 17th Amendment, so State Governments can once again be represented at the Federal Government directly.

The interest on the debt (about $31 trillion) at 3% is about $930 billion.

Gonna have the US default and play who gets what and Why?

France defaulted multiple times in the 19th Century and entered the 20th as a top 3 nation.

Default is a big deal but not the end of the world. It's a scare tactic by creditors, the same ones who got bailed out to the hilt while their mortgage forgiveness/flexibility was utterly optional for them to offer via HAMP/HARP/whatever it was called.
207   RayAmerica   2022 Nov 3, 7:01pm  

Prior to taking office in his first term, President Ronald Reagan stated that if he left office without closing down the Federal Department of Education (DOE) he would
consider his time in office as an abject failure.

Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt also believed the DOE should be disbanded and agreed to serve as Reagan's senior policy advisor to the U.S. Department of Education
during Reagan's first term. Iserbyt came from a family that was deeply entrenched in the ruling class of America; both her father and grandfather were members of Yale's
ultra-elite Skull and Bones. During her time at the DOE, Iserbyt repeatedly attempted to inform Reagan of the alarming, radical direction that the DOE was
moving. To her dismay, Reagan ignored her warnings. After experiencing much in the way of persecution from inside the DOE, Isebyt left the DOE, and wrote a book
about her experiences, along with exposing the nefarious plans of the elitists at the DOE.

It is well worth the read: the book is entitled "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" and is available as a free PDF download here:

The nice thing about being in America is that we will be able to kick back and watch how other countries play the default/who gets what and why game before we do.

The first batter up looks like it may be the UK. They are playing the game that if they don't make a budget, then nobody really knows how bad things are.

The sheer numbers of defaults there is gonna be something else.

Back of the napkin numbers are they have 8% GDP government deficit, 8% of GDP trade deficit and 6% of their economy tied to finance (yes, they go around charging each other varying amounts of interest and call it an economy).

Now they are at 100% of debt to GDP and looks like they are approaching the event horizon.

https://tobyrogers.substack.com/p/proposed-contract-with-the-medical


So here’s my proposal. Any politician who wants the medical freedom vote in 2024 needs to give us a seat at the table — that means having a say in the selection of the heads of HHS, FDA, and CDC and an ironclad commitment to passing the ten items listed below:

1. Repeal the 1980 Bayh-Dole Act that lets government officials and academics patent (and thus profit from) federally-funded research. So much of the corruption in our current system stems from this.

2. Repeal the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act. No liability protection for pharmaceutical companies.

3. Permanently end the entire notion of a “vaccine schedule”. Forcing one-size-fits-all medicine on an entire population is savage and barbaric. Anything other than personalized (“N-of-1”) medicine is malpractice.

4. Provide Constitutional protections at both the state and federal level for medical autonomy so that this never happens again.

5. Prohibit the executive branch from seizing emergency powers under the guise of public health. The Constitution does not have a pandemic exception.

6. The First Amendment must apply to social media. Ban Pharma TV ads.

7. Withdraw from the WHO, disassociate from the WEF, and dismantle the FDA, CDC, NIH, DARPA, BARDA, and ARPA-H. Make all scientific knowledge and data open source.

8. Negotiate an international treaty to ban gain-of-function research.

9. Prosecute those who participated in the iatrogenocide and covered up its harms.

10. Force Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca, Sanofi, Merck, and GSK to pay reparations to the vaccine-injured.

If you're a left-leaning person, understand this: This growing conservative movement isn't about lower taxes and corporate profits.

We are concerned about human rights abuses being committed by wolves in sheep's clothing.

We want to stop the exploitation of people by woke politicians and companies that use LGBT and climate campaigns to hide their use of slave labor.
We want to protect communities here and abroad by shutting down the human-trafficking trade on our southern border.
We want to expose money laundering and corrupt closed-door deals that have become the norm through Covid policies (see Andrew Cuomo in New York) and war zones (see Ukraine using Democratic mega-donor FTX to launder funds through crypto).
We want to protect the environment by making poor nations and communities as wealthy as possible as fast as possible so they have the resources to invest in environmental stewardship.
We want to stop the charade of "climate" policies being used as a facade by woke globalist hypocrites to keep the world's poor in the gutter while they get rich.
We want to invest in stable homes with loving mothers and fathers who are empowered to vigorously defend their children from those that want to use them as tools for ideological campaigns, movements, and sexual kicks.
We want regular families all around the world to be able to protect themselves from oppressive authorities by having access to weapons that will instill fear in the hearts of tyrants.
We want to protect freedom of speech and freedom of conscience, even when people disagree with us.
The cronies in mainstream parties like the Republicans don't realize that this is true, but the reality is that most of us young conservatives care squat about those stuffy old RINOs and their stale decorum.

Won't happen. I'm the treasurer for the board I'm elected to. I don't even read the accounting if I'm being honest. I just sign and move on with my night during board meetings. We're only talking $250k annually, most of which is salary and rent, so there's not much to it.

It's easy to manipulate the chain of command or not see underlings playing games. Doubtful, but Nancy Pelosi could be the most honest person and is just a moron that can't see the corruption within her own office/family. Far fetched, but not impossible as I do know she's a moron and could miss fraud.

We tend to think everyone sees what we see and read. We "assume" that the elite do as well. They might not. Not an excuse, but sometimes the handlers shield them from reality to keep them and their ego happy.

Back to your comment Patrick, even if you were given 4 months to read a bill, I can promise 98% of your elected officials might get through 100 pages of 3k. There's simply not enough time regardless of how fast you can read. House Reps especially. It's constant campaigning given the 2 year cycle. Our House Rep spent 3 hours with our board in a town of 2,200 people.... You know IL somewhat still I assume. She lives in Lake County. 60 Miles from our meeting point. You're not reading a bill in that time and the back and forth to DC, campaigning, holding babies, etc.

The bills are overly complicated which I think we all know. CA being the biggest state, I'd guesstimate that maybe, maybe 10-20 citizens read any bill in totality. To think bribed politicians will spend anytime reading this shit is laughable. It's not happening.
216   Patrick   2022 Dec 15, 3:40pm  

@WookieMan The point is to slow them down.

If they don't read the whole bill, they they shouldn't be allowed to vote on it.

The hoped-for result is much, much shorter bills that we all can understand clearly.
217   Patrick   2023 Jan 24, 9:27am  

https://www.theblaze.com/news/lawmakers-push-term-limits-amendment


Lawmakers are once again advocating a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress.

Members in both chambers are backing the proposed amendment, which stipulates that House lawmakers who have served three terms would not be eligible for election to the House again, while senators who have served two terms would no longer be eligible for election or appointment to that chamber.

Under the amendment, if a House lawmaker elected to fill a vacant spot fills the vacancy for more than one year, that would count toward their three-term limit — similarly, if a senator elected or appointed to fill an empty seat fills that vacancy for over three years, that would count as one of the two allowed terms.

A number of GOP senators and dozens of House Republicans are backing the proposal, as is Democratic Rep. Jared Golden of Maine.

Even if two-thirds of both houses of Congress voted to pass the proposal, three-fourths of the states would need to back the amendment in order for it to be added the Constitution.

Define "right to a speedy trial" to mean that a verdict must be reached within one year of imprisonment, defaulting to innocent.

How about 90 days?

Speedy trials should absolve or convict quickly.

End racism by refusing to talk about it

We have laws, but they are very selectively enforced.

within 70 days
18 U.S.C. § 3161(b). Trial must commence within 70 days from the date the information or indictment was filed, or from the date the defendant appears before an officer of the court in which the charge is pending, whichever is later.

That's for Federal charges.

Basically we have political prisoners.

OK, that's something, but it's only about when the trial must commence, not end.

I want people either released or convicted within a year. I can see that some investigations take time, but as a motive, if someone if found innocent and released, they should be compensated well for their unjust time in jail. I'll add that above.

Also, there should be zero selective enforcement.

No government favoritism or exclusion of citizen by race


https://slaynews.com/news/boston-woke-democrat-mayor-accused-discriminating-against-white-business-owners/


Boston’s “woke” Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu has been accused of discriminating against white business owners in her city.

A group of white restaurant owners filed a lawsuit against Wu for racial discrimination.

They say they were targeted for city fees in part due to their ethnic heritage.

According to the restaurant owners, Wu and the city singled them out for a $7,500 outdoor dining fee.

However, the fee only applied to establishments in their neighborhood, which is predominantly white. ...

Wu has come under fire for racially charged jokes in the past, making a joke last St. Patrick’s Day about having to deal with “white” problems.

“I’m getting used to dealing with problems that are expensive, disruptive, and white — I’m talking about snowflakes, snowstorms, snowflakes!” Wu said at the time.

Legally define all banking as either storage of silver for a fee, or participation in the bank's lending risk and bank run risk for an interest payment.


https://notthebee.com/article/heres-a-rundown-of-what-happened-with-the-collapse-of-silicon-valley-bank


Becker sure as heck didn't instill confidence: Customers withdrew a staggering $42 billion of deposits by the end of Thursday, according to a California regulatory filing.

Once a bank run starts, it doesn't tend to stop. People show up and want their money, right away.


Every depositor at every bank must either:
1. pay a storage fee for their silver or gold, which must remain on the premises, available for withdrawal at any time
2. agree to participate in the bank's risk in exchange for interest payments

That would solve all bank run problems, while allowing banking to continue operating without continuous movement of physical silver or gold.

The key, as with the "vaccine" is that the public must give informed consent to risk. If everyone knows that they are participating in the bank's risk, they will allocate their money wisely.

What should not continue is for all depositors to be promised all their money at any time, when the bank lends out the large majority of that money. It's obviously impossible, and leads to bank runs like this one.

Require classification and prominent marking of all non-metal payment instruments as "Not money, only a debt, MAY DEFAULT", because they are merely debts.

Excellent visual! It's like the old OSI model of the internet. Each layer depends on the layers below working properly.



When the Fed took over the "Money/ Exchange Systems" the whole system started to rot. Over the last century they have infected every system and caused war and misery in the name of profit for a few.

Who owns the Fed?

https://www.businessinsider.com/who-actually-owns-the-federal-reserve-2013-10?op=1

The Federal Reserve system is an imperfect, but rather innovative clearinghouse. Its structure as “independent within government” makes it hard to decipher precisely who owns it. I prefer to think of the Fed as being an entity designed to help support the US payments system (which thereby makes it a bank facilitating entity) which serves public purpose and private purpose. In other words, it’s better to think of the Fed as a public/private hybrid and not really being “owned” by anyone.

should we change the paternity testing statement to "if either party requests" ?


I think it should be 100% of the time, because of the great beneficial effect that certainty of paternity has on men's involvement.

Even a small doubt makes men less inclined to take care of their children.

And if the child is not his, the man should know about that and be absolved of all obligation unless he legally adopts the child.

Over the last three years, Pharma, capital, and their paid stooges in government have aggressively pushed a series of catastrophically bad ideas:

Vaccine mandates = the corporate state can trespass your body at will and alter your DNA.

Central Bank Digital Currency = the corporate state can trespass your bank account and turn off your money at any time.

Smart meters + bans on gas stoves & water heaters = the corporate state can trespass the walls of your home and turn off your power.

Requiring electric cars = the corporate state can turn off your ability to travel domestically.

Vaccine passports = the corporate state can turn off your ability to travel internationally.

Social credit scores = obedience to the corporate state is required to access public services (including buses and trains) or private services (bank loans).

15-minute cities + 5G = everyone is assigned to a ghetto so that the corporate state can track and monetize your every move.

All of the above are examples of fascism — the merger of corporate and government power. None of these initiatives benefit the public and none of them have public support. Yet Pharma, BlackRock, as well as the WEF, WHO, BMGF, and Biden White House are entirely dedicated to imposing these fascist ideas on the public.


I'm opposed to all of those ideas.

An excellent example of corruption:



Prices must be identical at all times for the identical drug or treatment, regardless of whether the patient has insurance or not. It's fine if the insurance covers some or all of the price, as long as the price charged is the same regardless of insurance.

Prohibit government loan guarantees of all kinds, particularly housing or education loan guarantees because they simply raise the cost of housing and of college.
