You're criticizing something which is fundamentally defined by the constitution. Criticize all you like but it's a waste of breath unless you advocate:

a) A Constitutional Convention or
b) A civil war

Which is it? (a) is the only legal path to change what you don't like, and if try to wave a wand and abrogate the constitution that severely I can guarantee that the union will dissolve. Or simply throw out by force the unconstitutional government which would be by definition illegitimate. The good news is that it won't be much of a civil war since the vast majority of those who are capable and/or inclined to fight will all be on the same side.

Although I suppose you could try to arrange for an amicable divorce.
