Amendments

 I sat and read through a list of what folks felt ought to be 'new' amendments....so I have eight ideas of my own:

1.  Upon age sixty, you have the last chance for federal office (House,  Senate, Supreme Court, President).  House-must retire by 62, Senate-must retire by age 66, President-must retire by age 68, and Supreme Court-must retire by age 70.

2.  Supreme Court Justices get one single 10-year appointment, then must retire.  Also, two Justices-in-waiting to be sworn in and waiting for health issues of the other nine....to step in.

3.  No Senator or House member allowed to be outside of the US more than seven days a year.  If they fail this 'test', then they lose accreditation for 3 months in the House/Senate, and their Governor must select a temp-fill.  

4.  No citizen required to pay more than 10-percent (yearly) on income taxation.  

5.  Anyone sneaking into the US....can never get citizenship.  Citizenship can only come via a person who asked for asylum/Green Card at a US embassy in the host country.  

6.  DC is finally divided up, with 60-percent of property going back to Maryland.  

7.  All House, Senate and Executive members (President/VP)....must take a yearly fitness test (mental and physical).

8.  Any House/Senate member who buys property in the DC region (not their home-state)...must become a resident of the new state within one year.
