Yes I'm aware we have had some amendments. Ending slavery. Allowing women to vote. Direct election of Senators.
What about gerrymandering? Cap in the house leading to bad representation? The senate? I mean the senate still exists. States aren't people like people pretended they were. So much has not changed.
There are tons of laws that circumvent amendments already, why do you think we need straight up amendments to the constitution to get things done?
