We are working to amend the U.S. Constitution to give the President the power for a line item veto, set term limits for Congress members, and require a two-thirds majority in Congress for approving any new taxes or fees. This aims to increase accountability, reduce government spending, and ensure fair tax legislation.

Two-thirds to raise taxes seems extreme when simple majority works just fine for spending.

Why do we need a two-thirds majority to raise taxes but not to cut vital services?
