I propose a new preamble to the Constitution...

"WE THE SHEEPLE, in order to form a more convenient, seemingly safer, economical and inoffensive consumer culture; protect those who have from those who have not; and ensure the illusion of domestic security; provide for the defense of corporate interests that rarely if ever coincide with our own; promote the general welfare of those who maintain the status quo at the expense of everyone else's; and secure just enough liberty for ourselves and our posterity to remain enslaved in a system we feel powerless to change so we'd might as well take whatever crumbs we can get from it in the misplaced hope of actually winning some nebulous national lottery they cleverly label The American Dream; do ordain and establish this Constitution for The United States of Amerika."
