"Now it needs to be taken to the next step and be permanent"
If there is one thing about taxes and government, nothing is permanent. If its not in the Bill of Rights, or carries a Constitutional Amendment, the government will tax it.
By "renewing" the tax ban, they are saying "we reserve the right to tax it later" |

All constitutional admendments can be changed dude, all it takes is another constutional admendment to supercede the orginal admendment. Think about the Prohibition Era
Even the Bill of Rights are not immune because they are also admendments to the constitution, no more and no less.
What I said was my opnion, or an idea as well. Just becuase I said it does not mean it will come to be.
Politians are deaf and dumb to ideas and opnions of the citizens they represent becuase they can only hear what the money is talking.
Now please excuse me. I feel like listening to a certain AC/DC song right about now.
