Burn the Constitution

To emphasize the commonality of the 99 percent, to declare deep enmity of interest with the 1 percent, is to do exactly what the governments of the United States, and the wealthy elite allied to them-from the Founding Fathers to now-have tried their best to prevent. Madison feared a “majority faction” and hoped the new Constitution would control it. He and his colleagues began the Preamble to the Constitution with the words “We the people …,” pretending that the new government stood for everyone, and hoping that this myth, accepted as fact, would ensure “domestic tranquility.”

The problems

The cult of the constitution

Who were the framers?

There is an almost religious devotion to which most citizens hold up both the constitution, and the framers
As is the case with any codified document of law or principles, its important to figure out in whose interest it was written. There is no such thing as a neutral political document.

Reforming the Constitution

Limits of reformism. How does it get changed? Go through history of amendments. Mass struggle, revolts, protests, etc.
Go through how each clause oppresses workers in some way.
Never be deceived that the rich will allow you to vote away their wealth.

The solution

Stop holding a highly flawed and vague document as an infallible religious text.
Stop glorifying the framers as enlightened beings, when in reality they were the class enemies of the workers then, just as much as now.
Realize that bourgeois political processes cannot reform the constitution. Improvements only occur when politicians are threatened by violence and instability.

Things that were legal, and enforced by the police:

Holocaust
Slavery
