Defense of Humans Amendment

  1. A Corporation is not a person. A person is defined as one man or one woman, that is, one human being.
  2. A Corporation does not have First-, Fourth-, or Fifth-Amendment rights. These rights, and other human rights defined in the Constitution and the UN Charter, are for human beings.
  3. A Corporation shall not harm a human or, through inaction, allow a human to come to harm.

Defense of the Flag Amendment
No employee of the Federal Government, whether elected, appointed, or hired, may accept anything of monetary value from a lobbyist.
[Lobbyists, like any citizen, may make arguments, and attempt to persuade legislators, but they can no longer bribe them.]

Legislative Purity Amendment
Every law, or resolution having the force of law, shall relate to but one subject, and that shall be expressed in the title.
[This is lifted from Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution of the CSA.]
