Add an amendment to the Constitution forcing Congress to pass balanced budgets and fundamentally change the tax code

Created by D.F. on December 04, 2012

1) All Congresspersons, including the House of Representatives and the Senate, will pass a Federal budget each fiscal year, and each congress shall pass a budget where Federal deficits are LESS than Federal revenues; if the Congress fails to do either of these things, they shall immediately stop being paid until a budget is passed in the manner described above, and shall also be barred from re-election for life, and lose all benefits assciated with that of a congressperson.

2) The 73,000 pages of income tax code is to be abolished, and replaced with a simple federal sales tax where EVERYONE pays a fair 9.99% or less. God only asks for 10%; the government should ask for less. Everyone must have "skin in the game" to feel the pain of Washington spending.
