yes, not only was the amendment not properly ratified, it's totally unconstitutional to begin with, and a tad bit 'communist' too, but the neo-cons can just ignore that part.

i hope the movie goes into the federal reserve a little bit too, again, totally unconstitutional and the fed isn't federal, and there's no reserve, just fake money printed up at will, which is why it's worth about 3 or 4% of what it was when it was introduced.

federal reserve, not federal and no reserve. patriot act, the opposite of what a patriot would do and targets real patriots. homeland security, making us infinitely less secure. security and prosperity partnership that erodes our sovereignty and enters us into a pan american union dictatorship where foreign countries actually control internal parts of our country, it's going to make us less prosperous and a whole hell of a lot less secure.

anyone see a pattern?

you can call fascism (and socialism) anything...we call it freedom.
