!7th Amendment.

This is a small excerpt from my study guide, basically I write a bunch of stuff from my school classes so that I can look back and remember then years from now.

How did the 17^th Amendment mess up the balance of powers? Because originally the states had a lot of say since they sent people to congress but not they completely lost a house in government. Since then the National government has gotten much more powerful than the states. But, if the 17^th amendment was repealed it would start to bring the balance of power back. Also, if the obamacare case gets ruled unconstitutional by the supreme court that would be a huge step for the states, showing that the national government does not reign supreme.
