Muck’s Minute #4

Yes, I’m pissed again.. MA

 

Blackmail actions by the Feds that affect you and I and your children..

This one is a special pissed off subject of mine. It never seems to get solved, it never seems even to get reviewed or studied by local school boards.

The school boards (Nation Wide) are so afraid of losing Federal Dollars that they have delegated responsibility for almost every school function (from Federally financed lunches to curriculums the Federal Department of Education specify must be taught and those that cannot be taught!  This is a bad mistake that will cost future generations of Americans dearly. The Federal Government has no business either stripping money from the taxpayer (or printing it) to finance state/local school organizations than they do groping my balls when I get on an airplane.

When the Federal Government does anything, through any of it’s “Departments”, it first confiscates the money (or prints it) from all of us (and business) thru taxation or fiat expansion. Then it returns some of it (less Federal and State leeches overhead) to the States, thereby allowing themselves to dictate terms on how the money is used. In other word, The Fed say, “You must use this money we confiscated you in the way we tell you to do it or we’ll cut off the honey pot and you can go to hell!”.

I posted some of this in a thread. I figured it needed a post of its’ own and if Admin. doesn’t feel that way, he may delete it.

I honestly have no clue as to whether the majority of blacks or hispanics will integrate themselves into the ideals of Americanism.

But I doubt it because the PTB and those pulling the educational strings are busy destroying the individuality, self-reliance and independence of any citizen they can mash under their thumb.

I am very sorry to say this, but I feel the American citizen (from age 5 up) is being dumbed down, taught to be dependent (i.e. not independent and certainly not self-responsible) and the farther we go down this path, the worse off we find ourself. The latest generation is a train wreck waiting to happen.  This is a dual problem.  First it’s a family problem in that the American family is falling apart with more and more single parents (remembering that it took 100,000 years to develop the most stable family unit (Mom, Dad and the kids) done through trial and error over millennium!).  The second problem is political correctness that requires that everyone, from where ever they came from and regardless of roots and race, is equal in intelligence, ability,  ambition, capability, drive and ambition.  Total horse shit..

The absolute disaster that has overtaken the traditional American family (Dad, Mom and kids) has as much to do with the destruction of the American way of life as unlimited creation of debt (printing money and issuing pseudo-debt that acts as the same thing). Housewives are getting pissed at the ever higher cost of necessities they attempt to purchase to support their families. Dad’s and Mom’s find themselves working two jobs to cover the Governments’ 1.5% inflation, when in fact is at 8% a year. Their children are now placed in Federally financed stupid, political correct bullshit schools that eliminate high performing students by forcing them to lower themselves (including boredom) into classes that insure that everyone passes at the lowest common denominator of intelligence within the class. Heaven forbid that an A+ student isn’t lowered to the D level of the black or hispanic child that just doesn’t get it.

BULLSHIT. All of it. It must be stopped. Our educational system MUST be upgraded to a system where exceptional students get move AHEAD of their less capable companions and given the opportunity to maximize their individual potential.

If this down’t happen, the American Educational System if doomed to continue to fail to the point where it is of no use to enroll students at all and the parents ( likely a few %) will take it upon themselves to both educate themselves AND their children by home schooling or starting a parallel school system to compete with with the so called “public schools”. I piss on Public Schools for they are run by political bureaucrats and coddled union protected teachers who barely teach the party line to produce a stream of children who believe in the ever benevolent Government and believe (if actions and experiece don’t convince them) the “diversity” and “equality of results” is a valid goal..

Horse-shit. Diversity is an accident of population and there is certainly no equal capability or equal results. Everyone gets to pursue equal happiness and success but NO ONE is guaranteed equal results (except through asinine “law).

We are being – as a country of individuals with variable intelligence and skills –  forced – by law – to insure that all the less intellectually gifted, of perhaps lesser drive to succeed, or just plain stupid are enabled to achieve the same happiness, skills and rewards of the more ambitious,intelligent and driven individuals among our population.  Total idiocy.

The ONLY WAY THIS CAN ACTUALLY HAPPEN is force those ambitious, intelligent and driven individuals to be undereducated, discouraged to exercise their natural drive and striving not to achieve and at the same time to suppress any superior ideas less they stand out above the diverse lesser gifted people (a lot of them).

Please remember that ANYTHING you measure will fall on a BELL CURVE.  There will be a few totally unable to function as any useful level, a number that can function at a level where, with help, they can achieve a meaningful life, a larger number who are average and can make their way educationally and personally into a middle class life style, a much smaller number who are superior in intelligence and ability who will stand out above the average and a very few shining stars that blow away the statistics and eventually become the teacher of teachers and cause changes to the world no one ever thought of.

But, if we keep the dumbing down, we commit national suicide, reducing the best and brightest to the mediocre and humdrum, lowering our intellectual output, out creativity and our ability to guide the world in the way to every more sophisticated and free positive intercourse between Nations and people.

The United States could rise to unforeseen heights in the world if it would just stop trying to force results that are proposed by tiny minded people who are interested in personal gain and wealth and instead, JUST SIT BACK, realigning our military to defend our USA in the event of aggression (and leaving foreign countries to settle their own problems), maintain a minimal defense (with all military troops (except for intelligence types) based within our borders) and prepared to fight in self defense any future wars instead of insisting on getting ready to fight the LAST WAR and populating the world with our military presence.

Then make it very clear that if anyone – ANYONE – who initiated aggression against the USA including American citizens, or property  would get an immediate, significant and very convincing reaction that would prove that it would not be wise to attempt any similar action in the future.

And then elect responsible men and woman who have the future of the human race as their highest priority to both Congress and the Executive and make the procedures to kick the bad apples out much easier – preferable by referendum and popular vote. A referendum of members of the Senate or House could strip the offending congressman/Senator from performing his function – stop him/her from voting on legislation – and the automatic special election triggered thereby would determine if the Congress-person (House or Senate) retained his/her seat.

The Supreme Court decision that corporations who contribute vast sums to election war chests MUST be reversed. This decision simply legalized that the candidate with the most money wins the political race. This is obscene, especially when no method is provided to KNOW WHO DONATED WHAT to the individuals campaign.  This was one of the worst decisions of the Roberts’ Supreme Court since it was formed.  It is, again, obscene and should not be allowed to remain law.

The Roberts’ Court decision, “That any political office belongs to the highest bidder and you will never know who supplied the money to enable this!” — IS AN ABOMINATION, illegal under the Constitution and at total odds with any conception of free markets and honest elections.

If it continues, we are more than lost. We are citizens of a dictatorship with no effective Congress, a martial police force (backed up with Combat ready National Guard (mobilized at the direction of the State Governor) and within a few election cycles, will be denied control of our vote, our lives and our ability to exercise freedom of movement, the pursuit of happiness or the few other “rights” that remain teetering, unstable and precarious in all our lives.

This is no longer my country. This is not the country I served and sacrificed  years of my youth to serve. This is a country I do not recognize, where dumbing down our school children is the goal of schools in the name of “diversity”. Horseshit. Schools are used as kindergartens and baby sitters which is not – NOT – the purpose of schools. The purpose of schools is to TEACH and instill discipline in each and every pupils, not coddle them and allow them to disrupt the class so those who wish to learn cannot do so.

Parents, get off your asses and FORCE School Boards to do it right. Go monitor classes for yourself so you can see the abomination that has overtaken our classrooms. If you get no satisfaction, withdraw you children from schools and teach them “home school” — there is literally an on-line (and books) library of how-to and support groups to allow you to do just that.

We are in deep shit in a lot of areas. We are the only ones who can change it. When you see something that’s wrong, fix it. Need a lawsuit to do it? There are a lot of law firms our there just waiting for you to bring evidence to them to show that wrong is being done. Call around and see what legal help is available. Then stick it too them – as much money as you can strip the bastards of – and make sure the settlement cures the problems you brought the suit for.

Happy days!

Amen Muck, amen.

We have become a country that caters to its lowest common denominator, and, it shows.

When NAFTA was passed, Clinton stated it would “equalize” worldwide wages. ‘Murkins heard it as raising their wages to match ours. Only a very small percentage heard the truth, they wanted to LOWER our standard of living.

Since then we continue to chip away at our middle-class and our freedoms, with the consent of the educated, and the educators..

MA, there is nothing in public education to save. Parents should just walk away from this state sponsored disease of dullardarity..

It’s Time to Build Schools, from the Ground Up


Sometimes the best thing you can do to a school is to raze it. The pipes leak, there’s mold in the ceiling panels, rats are nesting behind the wainscot, and a strange black stain has appeared under the basement floor near the oil line. It isn’t worth repairing.
It might have been worth repairing, if it had once been noble and beautiful, or at least conceived in an orderly way, for ordinary human purposes. But it wasn’t. It was constructed upon false principles. Its walls looked like those of a bad factory. It smelled like a warehouse. It could be terribly noisy, but it was never musical. It could boast plenty of glaring neon colors, but it was never simply sweet. It was not grand, but only big, and big enough for musty corners of corruption to develop here and there. This is the room where the kids snorted coke. This is the closet where they stashed the porn. Here is the English teacher who hated great English literature. Here is the history teacher who taught no history. Here is the health class that spread confusion and disease.

If it stirs any affection, it is in spite of its unlovable self. Perhaps one of the teachers took pity upon you and sent you to the library to read something good for a change. Perhaps one of the coaches lent you his hammer and chisels, and you used them to make a present for your father. But in general, the thing might well be wiped off the face of the earth, and you would feel a moment’s twinge, and then not give it another thought.

Aww, it’s so heartwarming to see an optimist. “If it continues, we are more than lost.” You need to wake up and smell the java, dude-we are already lost. What do you think is going to fix this country? Another Throw The Bums Out campaign? Letters to Congress? Volunteering to pick up trash on the highway this weekend with the Rotary Club? Voting Republican next time? Holding the door open for the girl behind you and excusing yourself when you burp?

Face it, dude-it’s over. The body is dying-the brain just don’t know it yet. The major organs start shutting down, the colon lets go and fills the diaper, the skin develops a grey pallor, and the eyesight starts to go… Then- beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

I love the ideals of America, but let’s face it-the empire is crumbling. Nothing will fix it. Nothing can fix it. No one can fix it for us. And if someone could fix and hand it back, we would fuck it up again. And I don’t think the public is smart enough to try and rebuild a system based on liberty and justice for all. America The Beautiful was a brief anomaly in the history of human existence and now we can get back to mankind’s natural default setting: slavery and oppression. George Carlin said, “Be happy with what you got.”
We’re heading back into the dark ages world-wide, so get used to it and hop on board today.
Remember-if you don’t join us, we’ll just have to come getcha.
Plan accordingly.

Just as sin and disease came in to the world through the actions of one person, so does salvation.

Confess Jesus as Lord, and believe God raised him from the dead, and you will be saved. (Romans 10:9)

There is a way out of this mess, the problem is there are too few who believe it. The problem for those who refuse to believe it, is it’s the only way. If it was within man to save himself, he would have already done it, and Jesus Christ would need not have died on the cross.

It isn’t possible for man to save himself, for a host of reasons. Why then, when presented with an alternative to suicide, must we refuse it? Turning one’s back on salvation and accepting the destruction of the world and yourself has to be rate as the most bone headed move of all time.

I, for one, accept salvation. Praise the Lord, God Almighty, and his son, Jesus Christ, who won the victory for us.

With regards to federal money, I suggest taking it while you can, at the same time prepare for the eventuality they run out of the ability to borrow.. We’ll all be better off without them in the long run.

“Our educational system MUST be upgraded to a system where exceptional students get move AHEAD of their less capable companions and given the opportunity to maximize their individual potential.”

That, and kids who fail a grade should be failed and have to repeat the grade, not get passed on till the point of graduation where they can’t even read their own diploma. Remember when they used to make kids repeat the grade? It was rare to find a kid who had to do this twice. Most learned their lesson after the first time.

Here’s the deal. Don’t even think of public school. Cut back some of the frills so you can live on one income, then have your wife homeschool. Homeschooling has really advanced. However you want to do it, there’s a program available. If you know nothing about it, then get a program that gives a lot of structure. These programs administer and grade the testing, papers, and homework. Also, you can do a few programs with them, and handle the others yourself. It is very flexible.

My daughter got an academic scholarship to a major public university, and she was homeschooled. Scored a 34 on the ACT. The homeschool program even gave her a diploma and course record. Just remember the social side. Find out about local county sports programs, 4H, FFA, dance, and things like that. No need to surrender to the Leviathan state.

Yes, Muck. It’s not the country you and I remember. The termites were already chewing through the timbers, but they had not yet reached the point where the whole building’s collapse was imminent. The Constitution still offered some protection from tyranny. Now the Collaborator in Chief and other minions of the corporate state just ignore it. Of course they want a dumbed down population, if not consciously, unavoidably, since to continue the charade requires a suspension of critical thinking. We’ve become a conquered nation, and it’s very hard to defend against an enemy who remains largely invisible, hidden behind government secrecy and the inanities of mass media. I don’t know what the solution is. A violent revolution would likely bring complete chaos, and it ain’t 1776. Enough social disorder and systems failures and we have Fukishimas all over the place. Game over. Of course under the direction of our financial elite, we’re heading there anyhow. Maybe if enough of the ruling class realizes that many of their ilk are truly insane and are risking the party for everyone, some change might happen, some leader might emerge with enough backing in the military and elsewhere to avert complete destruction. We’ll see. Hope springs eternal.

N A is right, there is only one hope but our government and the governments of the world have and will continue to the reject Christ as Lord over All.We are heading toward a period of satanic evil and wickedness like this world has never seen.

Gilbert is right ,its too late Muck .Only thing we can do is try to prepare as best we can and pray for the strength to keep going once the SHTF .

John C, we became a conquered nation by the promulgation of the war of northern aggression, which allowed the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, and the ratification of the 1th Amendment, also in 1913.

There have been psychotic sycophants in office, including LBJ and the expansion of the welfare state to produce democrat voters, and putting the nation on course for unsustainable debt.

The hand of monied interests is all too evident through the course of the past 400 years or so, in the affairs of Europe, Russia, and the Americas.

We have not yet become a totalitarian police state, like Russia and China. The alternative to a police state is one based upon individual rights, and one which I refuse to surrender.

Nice rant Muckster

A school in NY had advanced classes for exceptional students. There weren’t enough blacks in the class, so they shut down the whole program. Our educational system has devolved into the least common denominator, blacks, and trying to educate them even thought they have no interest in education, and in some places, more than 50% drop out. And all public jobs have devolved into an affirmative action cesspool where unqualified people fill jobs. Incompetence reins, and it called in ineptocracy. They’ve dragged our culture down to their culture, our education system, everything.

The education system is performing exactly how the liberals want. They’ve been running schools for the last 50 years, shoving their agenda down kid’s throats. And it’s been a huge success. Diversity and multiculturalism matter more than math and reading and thinking. Just look at the latest generation. A majority of millennials support big government, voted Obama into office twice despite all the catastrophic damage he’s caused and will cause, and many support outright communism. Millennials grew up in broken homes with boomer or echo boomer parents, and they are the least family and God centered generation in history. They are going to lead our country into totalitarianism and/or full blown communism. Liberal progressives wiped out all the ethics, morals and values that made this country strong, and now we keep devolving into more and more weakness, until there will be nothing left but functionally illiterate, government-dependent obese non-thinking, phone staring imbeciles. Well, actually, that’s what we have today, it’s only going to get worse.

this is the second time I find myself writing this cogent and well worded comment when the shit goes down and I lose all my comment.

let me just get it down in summary form. I think you are describing affirmative action, that is the program that requires quotas in schools. diversity is a new program to include everybody. the beautiful blonde said that schools do not allow a kid to pass out party invitations if they don’t invite everyone (in the class, I suppose).

I looked up diversity: The short answer for the question “what is diversity” can be best defined as – “diversity and inclusive practice includes gender, religious, race, age, disability, linguistic differences, socio-economic status and cultural background.”

Chen

I had gone further to say that diversity is no longer about race relations alone, it is about gender and transgender issues. the race baiters will find themselves marginalized as gay and lesbian agitators take center stage.

Muck – many thanks.

One point, perhaps one quibble, is that you said the Roberts decision is unConstitutional. Personally, I do not see it that way, as the Constitution grants the right to petition, which has been taken as the right to lobby. Therefore, the decision seems to uphold that right.

You throw the claim out there that it is unconstitutional. Based on what clause do you make that claim?

I know the decision is doing damage, but it seems to be Constitutional to me. Also, it seems no more nor no less than what the unions were allowed to do since their inception.

Lobbying is Constitutional, so it seems to me. Perhaps an amendment is in order, but that will not happen.

“WICKED DEBT FRAUD” The one and ONLY answer to the debt problem is to declare it null and void because of FRAUD! It is fraud because it is mathematically impossible to repay ! It can not be repaid because the interest is never created on the loan and that is fraud ! And fraud voids all ! If we don’t void all out of thin air debt the bankers will own almost EVERYTHING ! And we will be homeless slaves ! They have a license to counterfeit ! Can I counterfeit the money to repay the loan ? Why not ? If we even attempt to repay a impossible debt (the national debt) all we do is show our ignorance ! The way to fix this mess is so simple a 3rd grader can figure it out ! We void the fraudulent debt! and everyone keeps ALL the items they have so called debt on ! And then we start to use a debt free currency and / or gold and silver ! And then we will have a robust economy like never before — OR WE LET THE BANKERS STEAL EVERYTHING !
I was in about the third grade when the news was talking about the national debt and I asked my dad who do we owe money to and who could possibly be richer than the United States? and where did they get the money? And then my dad took a gulp off his beer and said we owe it to our self ! I said that’s the dumbest thing I ever heard of ! that’s like me borrowing from my right pocket and setting fire to the interest and putting the rest in my left pocket ! This was about 1972 ! But Dad was wrong! We owe it to international Bankers running the biggest Ponzi scheme on earth called The Federal reserve system! And yes it really is this simple ! The bankers have a shoe in on ALL loans they make ! All they have to do is stop lending and then start foreclosing on ALL debts!-meaning they now own everything that has a debt by having a license to counterfeit ! So we” 1″ keep getting fleeced by continuing to pay this fraudulent scheme ! OR” 2 “we declare ALL out of thin air debt NULL AND VOID because of FRAUD ! And we keep everything we have so called debt on! MOST people don’t get this part Every car, boat, house, machine, tool, farm,ect. has already been paid for by the fraudulent paper! So no one looses ! WE sure as hell cant give it to the banksters! (let them steal it) AND IT DOESENT MATTER IF YOU WANT TO REDUCE THE DEBT 99% ITS STILL UNPAYABLE! So when we void the FRAUD This will be the ultimate FRESH start for everyone ! Share this if you want THE solution to the WORLDS problems! If not everything will continue to get worse until we have HONEST DEBT FREE MONEY /and GOLD AND SILVER ! And there is plenty of gold and silver! just Divide the paper money (FRN) by the gold /silver and you have the value of them! NO MATTER WHAT IT COMES TO per OZ ! Then we would be happy to work for SAY A ONE OZ. SILVER COIN A day ! Because a one OZ. silver coin ( REAL MONEY ) will buy what $100 – $200 did before the reset! THINK ABOUT IT! This is what Scripture calls the jubilee ! “WICKED” Debt And the amount and size of the debt has nothing to do with it being mathematically impossible to pay This fraud is so “WICKED” that even a $10 loan is a Ponzi scheme here’s how it works ! I’m the new banks first customer ( CHUMP ) I borrow $10 @ 1% interest I now owe the bank $10.10 but ALL the money in the world is $10 the .10 cents doesn’t exist so some one else has to borrow some so called money and I have to find a way to get .10 cents from them so I can repay my loan ! Now say they borrowed $10 also now I somehow get .10 cents from them to pay my loan back ! But now he is short .20 cents to pay his loan ! so now you can see how a $100,000. house that will cost you $ 265,000 to pay off because you have to pay $165,000 in interest is a GIGANTIC PONZI SCHEME ! Now multiply that by millions of people in the U.S. and you can see how It turned into the monster debt we see today ! And for the loans that do get repaid multiple people have to default on there loans for you to pay off your loan ! NOW you can understand why we have a rapidly growing homeless problem ! Now that is a WICKED debt money system that we must declare Void !

With the many serious problems we face (detailed by many contributors), there appears to be only two choices to create enough opportunity for citizens to prosper while preventing the Elites from violating citizen’s privacy, reducing our freedoms, and harmful education standards to keep the populace under-informed, under control, and overly exploited:

1. Somehow find a way to organize a media campaign among all independents, libertarians, and citizens who are anti-establishment to educate and inform others of the need for serious reforms. Polls supposedly show 75% of citizens don’t trust the federal government and Congress has only a 5% approval rating. This of course is the pie-in-the-sky option since everyone knows the extreme difficulty of persuading others.

The only other option would be what most see as radical and which many don’t want to consider – civil unrest. The first option is obviously preferable if enough people can contribute financially and the campaign is hard-hitting enough to get people’s attention – and influence their vote.

The second option may happen on it’s own because of the way our economy is going thanks to the federal reserve, irresponsible politicians – and the big money special interests and very wealthy individuals who control them – plus voters who keep re-electing democrats and republicans.

my older sister is an English teacher(prolly why I refuse to use punctuation or follow any rules of writing(you can only be corrected so many times before you rebel))
you should see some of the crap she sends me. one student thought ‘shrieks of terror’ were things and referred to shrieks as nouns throughout her first year college English paper. and that is just one I can think of off the top of my head.
next up would be some of the resumes my wife gets from people. let me tell you, you will not be hired as an accountant at her firm if you cant use spell and grammar check on your resume. if you have more than one apostrophe in your first name your resume goes in the garbage also. if you tell a little story in your resume, forget it. if you have ‘this is my resume’ at the top it gets the round file. if it is hand written in pencil, don’t even bother.
whats important to remember here, is that accounting is taught in college. kids are so ill prepared for college, that they leave college ill prepared for the world at large.
I would be all for home schooling, except I know two families who home school. the first time I saw the eldest daughter of one family she was juggling chickens in her yard(no lie).
every time I have bumped into the mother she has a booger hanging out of her nose. makes me want to grab it with needle nose pliers. the other family, no joke, butchers, cans and eats road kill, deer in particular.
this nation no longer resembles what I grew up with. it is far more like one great big jack ass skit, where we are all riding in a shopping cart down a steep hill. just with massive surveillance.

We were at PetSmart yesterday, waiting to check out. The girl behind the counter (who weighed at least 350lbs) had people in front of us who had a credit and then paid cash with the rest. It was obvious she couldn’t add up the numbers, and couldn’t use the register. It took her 10 minutes to figure it out, and she was literally using her hands to try and add. Maybe if she took off her shoes, we’d have been waiting only five minutes, but she was so fat she probably couldn’t bend over and touch her toes. I was astounded. Do they even teach math in school anymore? How can a person get a job if they can’t even add numbers? I was watching the terror in her eyes when she realized the people in line realized she couldn’t add the amounts together. She looked desperate, like she needed her iphone and calculator to bail her out.

Meanwhile, in school they teach gender issues, which are much more important than math.

Oh my Awd, inclusiveness to the point of idiocy.

What in the hell would be wrong with Male, Female, Other?

Why is the simplest solution always left sitting alone?

My gawd, we are the most self-centered, self-obsessed, self-delusional, people in the history of the freaking earth.

We make Roman vomitoriums and orgies look downright normal.

My fear grows that the rest of the world wakes up and realizes we are one sick nation and gets together to drive us back into the stone age.

Cripes. Gilbert is right.

But Muck freely admits he probably won’t be around to enjoy the show. Well, around in the physical, he and I could debate what/if comes next. I know I’m glad he’s with us now.

And for goodness sakes’ thumpers. Jesus isn’t coming for America, the anti-christ is just ANYONE (not some specific guy) that is evil and against peace and love, because you “believe” doesn’t make you any more special than those that don’t, and your God was pretty specific about telling man not to be ruled by government, man declined.

There has NEVER been an innocent time where man did not rain evil down upon other men. I would hazard to say the Romans got a few years where the balance was more fun than pain, and, of course, America and Europe seem – for some – to have it too, but evil, and strife, and struggle, have ALWAYS been with us.

It is slightly amusing to think that somebody actually believes this shit is new.

Nothing is new, and modern, decaying, self-absorbed societies have fallen before now.

The last time, the time after Christ, it meant hundreds of years of war and starvation and plague and Jesus was nowhere to be found. Yet you magically believe that this time is somehow different. Good luck with that.

Really, I hope your feelings are right. I really do. But if God didn’t return to save his chosen ones during the dark ages, why on earth would he bother now?

Muck – you may be right that it is wrong. You have made no case whatsoever that it is unConstitutional. I have pointed out the clause granting citizens the right to petition. It seems quite clear to me that it s in fact Constitutional. No where does the Constitution mention that any petitions must be made public.

I am against that aspect of he Constitution. I have no doubt that the petition clause everenvisioned modern mass marketing, massive amounts of donations from aligned interests, etc. i think it should be amended. It will not be.

But I believe it was a ruling based on the wording of the Constitution’s clause on petitioning, and on two centuries of interpretation of that clause.

llpoh
llpoh

Muck – I do agree with you that it is wrong. It is an example that shows the Constitution is not perfect. Many things were unknowable 200 years ago.

I would support an amendment to that portion of the Constitution. But if they started making amendments again, I fear where it would stop.

In general, the entire Constitution has been destroyed in any event. Its rules are no longer followed, and it has been replaced by executive order.
