− | The United Amendment is a comprehensive Amendment to the U.S. Constitution currently being written by ordinary people right on this website. A number of factors have lead the government to point far from our common values of Freedom and Fairness. Our current crop of representatives has the lowest approval rating in history, and it's well-deserved. A combination of gerrymandered districts, government-controlled media, low citizen participation, and a general erosion of values has produced the most corrupt, insular, and incompetent menagerie that Washington has ever seen. And the country has just endured two of the longest, most costly, graft-ridden and unnecessary wars in our country's history.

− | As part of a larger effort to rebuild the country, we're drafting an Amendment that will reestablish a government that is more fair, more free, and has the integrity and compassion needed to carry us forward. With input from just a few hundred people, we've already developed many fresh, innovative ideas that solve long-entrenched, difficult problems.

− | The current draft of the Amendment is based on the two common values that our nation has always had since its inception: Liberty and Justice. Everyone here believes in Freedom and Fairness (Liberty and Justice). If someone in the U.S. doesn't believe in Freedom and Fairness, they're living in the wrong country. Using those values as a guide, the United Amendment will restore Integrity and Compassion to our government and provide a new foundation on which to rebuild our country.
