“It looks like it really, really might come true.” I found myself thinking it again. A whole life of going on like that. Interesting. Time will tell.
Latest text I might send to the NYCGA:
The Constitutional Convention Sub Group:
PAER is all about how to get money out of politics and arguably the biggest reform of all, removing private source code from tallying votes in public elections. Political/electoral reform needs to happen first, it’s the problem once fixed makes a bunch of others go away. And it’s non-partisan, which is nice. No rocket science.
With everything we know to be true today (such as members of Congress practicing insider trading in the People’s house), then of course, objectively, nothing short of the Article V Convention is a chance in hell of placing government back in the hands of the people.
Those who go vertigo in fear that a convention would produce social amendments, i.e. amendments to ban marriages, etc., are absurd. All history shows those fears irrational/illogical. You want 100% assurance that if we have a convention you’ll like/approve everything? Guess what asshole, you’re an asshole. We all have an idea what would be best right now. Until we gather in a convention we’ll never know what 75% of Americans actually approve of. If you’re American and afraid of finding out, you should shoot yourself in the head. Get it? It’s time for a convention. The time for half-measures and patches are over. Be a fascist if you want, evidence is the universe is against it.
If the administrators/moderators of PAER don’t fast-track Article V to a working group status to start work to bring about a convention, they have become the very thing all in solidarity with the movement are against.
