I got a ballot in the mail from my city government, here in Salt Lake City. They wanted my vote, yay or nay, on the question of whether to put forward a move to have corporations stripped of the rights of individuals in the US constitution. A constitutional amendment over-ruling recent and former Supreme Court decisions.

en.wikipedia.org

" Article Five of the United States Constitution describes the process whereby the Constitution may be altered. Such amendments may be proposed by the United States Congress or by a national convention assembled at the request of the legislatures of at least two-thirds of the states. The method of proposal by national convention has been attempted twice, but never succeeded. "

I voted yay, of course. Has anyone else gotten anything like that? Who would vote against it?
