Correct. Once America threw Christian morality out the window, the Constitution became nothing more than a quaint anachronism, to which no one paid the slightest bit of attention.

It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other”.

Yes. The whole raft of “progressive” amendments from the never-to-be-sufficiently-cursed Wilson Maladministration did tremendous damage – Federal income taxes, direct election of Senators, and especially universal suffrage. It is not a coincidence that the dyscivic drift of the USA became irreversible pretty much after the 1920s.

Democracy is three wolves and two sheep voting on what to have for dinner, and always fails when 50% of the population plus one figures out that they can vote to enslave the other 49%. That’s why the founding fathers hated it and referred to it as “mobocracy” in their writings.

Funny thing is, without the 17th amendment, the Senate would be like 75% Republican right now. Progressives might suck, but you can’t help but respect how amazing they are at long-term plays.

20% inflation is a small price to pay for having the adults back in charge.
