<DIV>We don't live in a Representative Democracy. We live in a Constitutional Representative Democracy. We are a democracy, but not an absolute democracy, we have a Constitution that protects certain individual liberties and rights above those elected officials and the majority. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One of those individual rights and liberties is not to be unfairly deprived of their wealth and property with out due process. Our Constitution makes that process to stand the test of a 2/3 vote of the people, not a simple majority. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think to force people into debt is unfair without a super majority vote. I don't think going into debt is something that should be considered an everyday operation for local governments. If government officials consider a service important they should have the foresight to save for it and purchase what they need. They should not buy it on credit, use the product, and then leave future generations to pay for it with interest. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A 2/3 vote is an important protection from people being socked with huge utility bills and property taxes from an overzealous local government that wants to spend now and leave the debt to future elected officials so they can get reelected. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I do not want to give the City Council the authority to rack up a deficit or double my utility bill without a super majority vote. </DIV>

<DIV id=yiv1007644147>That would make sense if this was not a Representative Democracy. Need I further elucidate this concept? Regardless, let me stake out a middle ground. The super-majority is appropriate for some pieces of legislation. But, if the super-majority is required too much of the time, government will never get anything done and the country will(has?) atrophy(ied?). The most prevalent example of this on the National scene is the GOP abuse of the filibuster.<BR><BR>I believe that in the case of these two amendments it is appropriate to drop the 2/3rds majority requirement. In this time of partisan politics, 2/3rds majority is very difficult to attain on <I>any</I> issue, no matter how reasonable the issue. If the city needs to borrow money, for example, in order to maintain and update infrastructure, this makes sense to me. It is likely cheaper to maintain and update this infrastructure now than
it would be to do so in the future. I think this issue boils down to whether or not it is a good idea for the city to borrow money in order to maintain/update infrastructure. Republican friends, tell me, why should we not allow the city to maintain/update infrastructure?<BR><BR>-Reggie<BR><BR><BR><BR>
