No.  Amendments should just be put in willy-nilly.  If we want to pass laws, we just pass laws.  If we want to change the way the backbone of the government works, then we pass an amendment.

Prohibition shouldn't have been an amendment.

But lack of detail and wide open to interpretation is what makes the Constitution fun!
