According to the atlasian constitution amendments don't have a sell by date, once passed by the senate they can be ratified whenever the regional executive chooses

A situation that is obviously absurd and a classic example of the failure of "game reform" for "game reform"'s sake. I'll be watching this thread, though.

This happened in real life, though, and I happen to like the 27th Amendment.

It shouldn't happen in real life, either. It's ridiculous. I don't know why we insist on keeping the worst parts of the US system when we adopt it for Atlasia - and even worse in some cases, like the bizarre guarantee of the right to "low potency explosives. The one that always springs to mind is that we inexplicably have retained the nonsensical "oh by the way you also have imaginary secret rights that aren't listed here!" clause when creating the Atlasian constitutiton.
