This is what is needed!!! It is time for a 28th Amendment!! “When the people fear their government there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty” Thomas Jefferson
Amendment 28 Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators or Representatives, and Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States . Let’s get this passed around, folks – these people have brought this upon themselves!!!

Exactly right. They brought it upon themselves, and should never have acted in any other way. It should have been part of the original Constitution. But, the fact that it was left out is very consistent with the aristocratic control that has always been exerted over the government. The U.S. revolution may have preceded the French revolution, but they understood the root cause better. Unfortunately, people don’t learn from history, and have short memories. So, now, the entire “free world” has to go through the same process all over again. Hopefully, new breakthroughs in understanding human psychology (http://A3society.org human species and language tabs ) will allow the next step to achieve longer lasting results.
