I see you've declined to respond to my question: And from whom do you expect to extract money to pay for this? #reply-13828580 Also, you stated: The Constitution is not divinely inspired. Very true, but I do believe the British helped....

TC, So! Now you are presuming to be so "brilliant" that you are going to tell the world what is wrong with our "Constitution". If you ever fall off that "high horse" you are riding, it's going to break your neck. ~H~

The Constitution is not divinely inspired This is your statement and your proof is.... While it says that all men are created equal, it doesn't demand that they remain that way forever. Even you could become a high paid internet entrepreneur. If you read the Constitution as safeguarding the right of citizens to bring loaded weapons into churches and daycare centers, then I would argue it is either wrong or wrongly interpreted. We are prohibited from carrying a permitted weapon into some areas (federal courts). Carrying a loaded weapon into a church or daycare center is not a crime unless it is prohibited by law. I would imagine this was done quite often in Israel and not considered wrong. After the revolution, there will be no more waiting. Once we start paying doctors, medical researchers, nurses, and teachers what we pay halfbacks and left-fielders in this country, there will be no more waiting.. You sound like Thomas Castro. I wasn't aware that tax money paid for halfbacks or left-fielders, but I'm sure it does pay doctors (through Medicare), researchers (through government funded research) and teachers (with very, very, few exceptions) so you are arguing unrelated items. You must feel like I should be paid less so you can be paid more. Or else you chose the wrong profession...
