What We Need is a Fix. Let's Start with Clarity

Definition leads to clarity. Clarity leads to understanding. Understanding leads to good decision making.

It stuns me the idiotic things people think and say, and I absolutely include "journalists", academics and politicians who should know the facts, and yet, they spew out nonsense. Then there are the celebrities, many of whom have been amazingly successful, became famously rich and spout insane leftist nonsense, and the media quotes their stupidity with huge numbers of seemingly sane people listen to them as if they really have some to say that's worth listening to.

Let's try and get this.....just once.....please.

Most of these people were parking cars, pumping gas and waiting on tables before they became "stars". They didn't become stars for the immense knowledge of history, economics or geopolitics. They became stars because they look better than most, perform in some fashion better than most, and who are really good at memorizing lines they didn't write, saying those lines as directed by someone other than themselves, all the while portraying people who don't exist. Why would we think that makes them smarter than the rest of us? Especially since if America was the socialist society they're promoting, they wouldn't be either rich or allowed to shoot off their mouths about anything, let alone anything against the government.

However, I've concluded to be a leftist requires massive mental capacity. Why? Because to justify their hypocrisy, irrational views and twisted logic requires unparalleled and remarkable mental gymnastics. They must have twist their minds into such amazingly irrational shapes in order to ignore something that should be obvious to the most casual observer, and it's an overwhelming and patently obvious fact: Their stupidity is astonishing.  Do you doubt that?  Watch The View....just once!

Fortunately, they're so obviously nuts ordinary people, with ordinary mental capacity, can see through it all. But that's no deterrent to the left. Why? Because they lie,and they know they lie. We know they lie. They know we know they lie!And the brilliant conclusion these mental giants on the left come to? Since everyone knows it all a lie, it isn't really a lie, ergo, why stop lying?

Now that's The Produnova in mental gymnastics and equally dangerous in the long run. 

The only thing that should be politically correct is truth, and the right to defend that truth.  That starts with education.  We need the public to demand the end of all federal federal involvement in public education returning the power back to the local citizenry who fund it all.  Allowing vouchers for all state public education. End state and federal funding, of any kind including student loans, for "higher" education along with the right of recall for all elected officials, state, local and federal.

My fix for the nation is to pass a 28th Amendment. Originally I wrote for this to be an amendment for term limits for the federal judiciary, but I don't think that's enough. I'm calling it the Fix America Amendment. It would repeal the 16th Amendment (income tax), the17th Amendment (how Senators are chosen), eliminate the FED, create term limits for the federal judiciary and all members of Congress, including a right of recall by the citizens of their states. add sunset parameters for all agencies, departments, bureaus and all laws and regulations.

It would end all members of Congress status as federal employees, making them employees of their respective states putting them on their state's payroll with their state choosing their pay scale, level of staff, and choice of offices, etc. All members of Congress from each state would be in the same building as the rest of the members of their state's representatives, and the offices would be contiguous to each other, both House and Senate.

And each state should amend their Constitutions with this kind of fix in mind, especially giving all state legislatures the right to determine the jurisdiction of their state's judiciary, as Congress has over the federal judiciary.  That would be a good start, but certainly not the end of the fix.
