Human Amendment
Let's write to Congress (www.congress.org)!
Dear Representative:
It is time for a new Amendment to the Constitution. It would seem to
be self-evident but man is inclined to be blinded by self-interest and
greed. The struggle to survive, be successful, and even fulfilled in
this country has gone from families working their family
farms/businesses and socializing in small towns, to large farms/businesses
supporting cities, to monopolized, commercial farms/businesses
contracting to work for large corporations with global markets. We have
gone from a country of personally accountable sole proprietors and
family businesses to small commercial businesses to large, international corporate
entities. Corporations have promised society anonymous jobs on a large
scale at the expense of personal freedom, identity, and responsibility.
Our laws have followed the path of big business, and the rights of
corporations to make profits are legally held as equal to those of the
rights of the individual effected by corporate business profits and at
the expense of the individual. Every individual's life is effected and
at risk of being sacrificed for the profit of big business because
corporations (and their "right" to make profits) are legally considered
entities equal to an individual. This country needs a new Amendment to
the Constitution that establishes the legal foundation that human
welfare, well-being, liberty, and health supersede the right to make
financial profits and gain and that provides for a swift and just
enforcement of individual rights over those of business rights, even that of international corporations. Please
help make that happen.
Thank you,
