I think this topic is non-notable (Wikipedia:Notability). I don't think it's received any substantial coverage in the media or academic writings. Also the entire content of the article is included in Balanced Budget Amendment so doesn't need to be reproduced in a separate article. Iota (talk) 15:18, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Tim Song (talk) 05:51, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete An interesting subject, but fails WP:GNG and is redundant to Balanced Budget Amendment, which of course has received far more coverage. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 06:32, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - No independent secondary source coverage. I don't believe that related think tank position papers qualify to establish notability. Every idea in Washington has been encapsulated into a think tank position paper. Racepacket (talk) 12:52, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to Balanced Budget Amendment. I couldn't find any sources on Google News, and this deserves a brief mention in the main article. --Explodicle (T/C) 17:37, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Cato Institute, whose soapbox this is going to be for awhile, I guess. Authors don't have any power to amend the Constitution. Find a member of Congress to propose it, and it might deserve an article. Mandsford (talk) 02:26, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
