Scotland: Independence,William Wallace and Willie the Groundskeeper

[rolosrevenge]

If I could make only one amendment to the U.S. Constitution, it would be this: no law can be passed without two votes of Congress, separated by at least two years. The first vote defines the bill. The second vote, which crucially cannot occur until after an intervening election, is a simple yes or no: should the bill become law. The bill cannot be altered in any way for the second vote.

And then even less would get done than currently is done.

Not necessarily. If it became clear that there would never be a durable majority for either liberal or conservative utopian schemes, perhaps they'd focus more on solving actual problems, like keeping the roads maintained and making the electric grid more robust against failure.
