2:8 - False Solutions: Balanced Budget Amendment

The John Birch Society
In this video, Peter Rykowski explains why a so-called Balanced Budget Amendment (BBA) — a popular excuse for an Article V constitutional convention — is a false solution for reining in federal overreach.

Rykowski also notes that enforcing the Constitution as currently written would eliminate our reckless-spending problem.
