Congress keeps voting to raise their pay to adjust for inflation while supporting legislation that perpetuates the recession. Should congress have the ability to raise their pay? Should politicians make $200,000 PLUS benefits? Should congress be allowed to trade stock when they pass the policies that shape our economy? We discuss all that and more!

It's a Constitutional Convention! Welcome to the limited series Blueprint, a collaboration between Ryan and Ken from Taboo Topic. This series is designed to envision a smaller federal government that is limited in power and scope, much like the founding fathers originally intended. Each week Ryan & Ken take one issue they see with the current government and discuss it, then they propose a constitutional amendment to rectify the situation. At the end of this series they will finalize their amendments and you will have the opportunity to ratify them (follow our social medias so you don't miss the vote!). Join the fun and the discussion! 

A new episode of Blueprint will be released each Friday.
