I noticed Rand is touting that John Cornyn has called for a balanced budget amendment: http://www.randpaul2010.com/2010/11/...-constitution/
I truly hope Rand is introducing his own version, and is not going to be signing on to one drafted by Cornyn, which would probably end up doing more damage than no amendment. Even Jim DeMint's version is trash, which you could probably anticipate by John McCain, Lindsey Graham and other enemies of freedom signing on to it.
Some dangerous provisions I have seen are:
1. Basing numbers on the government's own estimates or GDP
2. Allowing exceptions during times of war (if anything this encourages keeping the wars going so they can keep spending)
