Constitutional Balance Amendment

Edition 2 (which was sent to all State Governors and State Attorneys General in office during the last two years as well as the National Conference of State Legislatures' Executive Director & Executive Committee): The Constitutional Balance Amendment is the best and eventual way for the states to restore their constitutionally granted right to propose amendments. History will look back at ratification of the Constitutional Balance Amendment, as the point in time when Congress went too far and the states had to restore their constitutionally granted right to save the country from financial ruin. Hopefully, the states do not wait too long to avoid a financial-market revolt against our Treasury bonds. Even if the states wait too long, this amendment will enable the states to keep Congress (whose excessive spending will have caused the problem in the first place) from unconstitutionally restructuring our economy in response to the financial-market revolt. This amendment will have little effect on the current balance of power between democrats and republicans or between conservatives and liberals. The Constitutional Balance Amendment will eventually become an amendment to the Constitution, because an idea whose time has come cannot be stopped.
