Thanks for that link, Congressman Hensarling. I think it does a nice job of answering several of the criticisms raised against your Spending Limit Amendment. The authors suggest that either individuals or congressmen should “be given legal standing to sue to enforce the limit.” But what would they be asking the court to do? We wouldn’t want a court to pick which programs to cut to achieve the limit, I assume.
