My Blog prompt:
What would be the Bill of Rights on Mars? Conceptualize what you think would be the 10 most important rights of individual citizens on Mars.
In the future if Mars was successfully colonized, there would need to be something like the Bill of Rights. Basic "undeniable truths", and I need to find ten amendments that the future Martian government might use
- I think that one really important amendment is: The First Amendment. It says that we have freedom of religion, speech, press, petition, and peaceful assembly.
- Another good one is the Sixth Amendment. It says that people who have been convicted have the right to a speedy and public trial, and an impartial jury.
- Amendment Nine gives rights to the people that are not mentioned.
- Amendment Ten the powers reserved for the states and the people.
- Twelfth Amendment clarifies elections of Presidents (which Mars may or may not have.)
- 15th rights regardless of race, etc . . .
- 16th gov right to tax.
- 19 women's rights.
- 20 terms for President
- 22 terms for elected President

Wow! We used a lot of the same rights
