Allow gay marriage. Last I saw, homosexuals were humans too..

I'd go the other way and have the government get out of the marriage business all together. I do support Gay and Lesbian rights, they're just folks like you or I.

Teachers Union, Police Unions, Fire Unions, but you would have to raise taxes.
Or you privatize those jobs

I could go for that, then again the entire UN would collapse in a few years. That or become a puppet of China and Russia

About two-thirds of corporations operating in the United States did not pay taxes annually from 1998 to 2005, according to a new report scheduled to be made public today from the U.S. Government Accountability Office.

I dont know how I feel about Grid Lock. Seems like if this nonsense keeps going they will change the rules so that they dont need a super majority.
Also lets not forget the OTHER Half of America voted for them and expects things to get done.

P.S. I'm all for term limits, 2 for President, 12-16 years total. Also would like to see Supreme Court Judges be tested for senility or give them renewable terms of 20 years. Its kinda scary that some of the people who run this country you wouldnt trust behind the wheel of a car.

Wow!!! They are all right at the top for me. If I have to chose just one...I have to go with the tax issue. My taxes are ridiculous. My second would be Health care reform that does not include Government take over. Allowing the insurance companies to continue on with the price fixing on health care insurance premiums is not going to work. They should not be allowed to rate my group of 12 at a higher premium rate that a company with 500. If they are going to decide insurance costs based on pay out, which I think they almost have to, the formula should be with all the covered people they are insuring. Splitting it up the way they do, is allowing them to discriminate against small business owners and individuals who don't have group health options.
Why are pharmaceutical companies allowed to advertise drugs/medicines that can't be bought without a prescription seven million times a day on TV and in every publication you try to read? Take away the cost of advertising from the cost of the medicines and watch those costs come down.

Yeah but then their sales would go down.
Doctor I think I need *Magic Pill* because sometimes I feel tired, or get a stuffy nose.
Doctor write a script, patient goes to CVS, Doctor does this enough he gets some Free Stuff from big Pharama

You are correct

"In other words, people’s rights don’t come from government or from documents that bring government into existence. They come from nature and God. They exist independently of government and the Constitution. That is, even if there were no federal government and no Constitution, people would still have their natural, God-given rights. Such rights preexist government. "

The government is also under no duty to educate you, provide you with safe drinking water, safe food and drugs, pave the roads, or feed you.
So why do we have one in the first place?

Since Section 8 didn't go into effect until March 4, 1789, that would have been kind of difficult wouldn't it?

So you arent an orignalist I take it

Also it says that congress can coin money, does that include paper money? I think not!

Also The Constitution doesnt give you a Right to
Privacy
Travel
Or Immigration.
