When I said, "NO! The sky is NOT falling!" I meant we have firmly decided
that! I caught that you were stepping away from other amateurs decrying the
death of ham radio due to changes ... it was satire and I see how it could
be taken much differently ...

I read over you text much too quickly and was quick to take a much different
spin on it that the one I see now.

Yes. The supreme courts whole reason for existence is to enforce the
constitution to the letter, you are, again, correct, strange no one is seems
more upset by the gross inability of it to have done so in recent decades
....

The crux is this, I see citizens playing much more into their self gov't.
Let me give you an example of just how much so:
ALL police officers and sheriffs should be drafted, and go through a "boot
camp." At the end of 12 weeks of boot, we press them into service for a
four year term. The pay scale is fair and adjusted for special cases. But,
we all accept this as our duty. With this one change we could just about
completely remove corruption and restore respect to law enforcement. Plus,
the added benefit would probably be an overall reduced cost to the tax
payer.

But, this is only one change in a sea of changes I would make. Many I see
are disenfranchised by gov't playing a mother/father role for them, this was
never meant to be. I don't need a president, senator or rep "with a plan",
I simply need them to be honest and upfront with the people, then represent
the peoples wishes--this seems almost opposite from what I am experiencing.
If I can trust 12 men with my life on a jury, then I can darn well trust 350
million governing ourselves beside me ...
