The New Euro Constitution - A suggestion ?

the old new constitution is dead , Long live the next ! or some such words
What we need is to send a colony to Mars and let them work out a method of government for future generations.
they should be allowed to do it at their own pace to create a 'good decent' society of equals.
They should publish this and create a method of changing it as future events unfold .
As it is to rule future society, it should be simple and all encompassing

Failing that happening, look to the past. I hate to say it but the USA is a bit like Mars would be today when their Constitution was written.

It might sound a tad daft, but why re-invent the wheel ?
Check with the US Govt by all means as to maybe 1 item that should be changed a little , then run with it - keeping the amendments if they must, starting from scratch possibly.

The original document was glorious in its simplicity and fairness.

It would not take as long to write either. The problem may be that its too egalitarian for some countries ?

I reckon we'll be waiting a LONG time for it to happen , but would be nice to be wrong about that.

HMM think i got it slightly worong , I was thinking of the declaration of Independence, still the principle's valid.
The constitution is linked to the title
