This will probably go four posts and die.

You're giving three things you can change to fix America, what would they be and explain how they would fix America.

Power corrupts. If an elected official can't get it done in one term, it isn't worth doing. And it's probably not worth doing anyway.

2. Make unconstitutional any law or regulation that fails to have an expiration date within three years of its passage, and make "re-enactment" of any expiring law require a supermajority of all legislatures involved.

Virtually no law not in the common law of crimes and torts for several hundred years, or in a constitution, has enough oomph that it should infringe upon people's choices for anything other than a limited amount of time.

3. Not allow any bill to be voted on until each voting representative has publicly read the entire law verbatim out loud in enough public venues (NOT TV or streaming internet either) that hold the current population of his constituency.
One of the biggest crocks of shit in modern lawmaking is that thousands of pages of "rules" are passed without even the people voting on them reading them in their entirety, much less having the details published in a way designed for the public to easily pay attention.


All three changes, taken together: would also help fix America by weaning us from the "there oughta be a law" notions that the function of government is to be our mummies and daddies.





And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

1) All laws that are Unconstitutional immediately get discarded.

2) 75% of the planet suddenly becomes irreversibly sterile.

3) For the third, I think I'd like to have a nice Guinness and a juicy hamburger and fries.

No more tort court. You broke it, you bought it, but no more.

Everyone serves. Military or civillian, you serve in some capacity. Make all better citizens.

Straight taxes, a percentage of revenue. No deductions, everyone pays their fair share, personal and corporate.

President, house, Senate and Judges. 6 year term, no re-elections. (All federal judges.) President selects 'em. No congressional oversight/ ridiculous hearings, etc. Judges at every level must come from the construction trades in order to be eligible for consideration, and those carpenters, etc. that got a law degree along the way would be ineligible for the position.

1. Reversing the need for materialsism should take care of about everything.

2. Make it illegal for business to make anything more than 20% margins on goods or services.

3. Make actual fair labor laws that would eliminate the need for unions, but also take away business rights to fuck over employees.

I realize 2 & 3 destroy capitalism, but seriously, who we fucking kidding with that word anymore? Corporations are capitalists, entrepeneurs are Republican sheeple.

Martha Careful (31-May) : I have never seen an OTA, but who is lining up at LT and RG with starters? or is it all individual drills?
Zero2Cool (30-May) : Bears are the first team to be selected for Hard Knocks
dfosterf (29-May) : Andy Herman and his Pack a day podcast put up GB strengths yesterday. This morning he did weaknesses. They are both very good.
Zero2Cool (25-May) : Yes.
beast (24-May) : Does he say what it is?
Zero2Cool (22-May) : Christian Watson believes he has discovered the root cause his soft-tissue leg injuries
Zero2Cool (22-May) : Savage played last half of season with tear in rotator cuff
Zero2Cool (22-May) : SISSIES!!!!
Mucky Tundra (22-May) : Sounds like both Kraft and Tom were injuried before OTAs began
buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Not serious but waiting for strength and conditioning coach referwnces.
buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Tom and Kraft both injured(pectoral muscle),
Zero2Cool (20-May) : I feel similar about person and product/service.
beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player
Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity
Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.
CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.
Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol
Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.
buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4
Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills
Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line
Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then
