Nah, I'm good. Your post let me know that I have no further interest in interacting with you.
Thank you. And I'll thank you more if you put me on Ignore until and unless you have something intelligent to contribute. I have enough idiots to contend with in real life.
You may be long gone, but this needs to be said:
The thread asked for "a" constitutional amendment. That indefinite article implies one. Not five, not three, not two. One. You clearly want to vetch about campaign finance reform. That's your prerogative and it's a reasonable suggestion--although I'm not sure how you'd address it with only one amendment, and the OP certainly doesn't ask about rewriting the entire document.
What you should never do is make your original complaint in the guise of commenting on mine. "Jobs that require you to be able to finance a year of applying for them" ?! Really? In the first place, I don't know how you make your living, but it's not a year's salary for me, and it's not a year's salary for those making a 400 thousand dollars per year. It's much more than that. Sure, the cost of winning elections is a legitimate complaint, but it is tangential to my post. Moreover, my post clearly stipulated that the terms should be longer, and precisely for the reason that you imply.
I support the creation of only one chamber, for reasons I don't mind defending, and I think that they shouldn't be in constant campaign mode, and I really think that it should be the people's chamber--not just the rich people's chamber. I perceive those as three separate problems that could be reasonably addressed by one constitutional amendment and I made some suggestions to answer those three problems. You took off in a different direction and did it in a way that misrepresents the thrust of my proposal and the nature of it. I resent that. This sort of thing happens in politics all the time. I don't think people should get away with that sort of thing. So I'm calling you out.
Don't ever play me like that. Or anyone else. It's rude, it's unethical, and it's dishonest. If you have your own original idea of a problem that might be addressed with one single amendment, then put that into words. If the cost of calling you out for being disingenuous is me looking like a jerk, then I'll pay that price. What I won't do is let you twist the substance of my post into something other than what it was intended to be.
