If the USA ever rewrites their constitution it will likely have embedded ads.

Also with a mandatory arbitration agreement, the “supreme court” is really just one dude, that that’s that corporate CEO’s brother.

We’re sorry. You have insufficient funds for citizen level rights, and pursuant to the 104th ammendment, your rights will be reduced accordingly.
You are now Peasant class. Please report to your nearest farm for manual labour and the natural beauty of sleeping under the stars. For a mere $200/month, you can be waitlisted for a rights upgrade to lower plebian 3rd class.

Well that’s kind of always the case.
If you don’t pay your taxes you lose some of your rights, in almost any country.

I mean… the original versions had a lot of carve outs for states to tie rights and even personhood to land ownership.
Not to mention shit like the Three Fifths Compromise which definitely tied personhood to skin color and the money to say your kids were just tan.

The founding fathers intended it to be a living document brought to you by Carl’s Jr - Fuck you I’m eating.

And starts with "Writing a constitution for your new country is an exciting task! A constitution serves as the foundation of a nation's government, outlining its structure, powers, and limitations, as well as the rights and freedoms of its citizens. Here's a general outline to help you get started:"

Can’t rewrite a living document after it dies. It may be time for a new one. Many countries have taken ours as a lesson for what to do, and what not to do (iirc Chile is an example, possibly Peru - memory is fuzzy). Somewhere we forgot it was supposed to change with our needs, thus it may no longer be fit for purpose. If the system collapses, we have infinite possibilities for something new and improved.

New one needs more swearing.
And for fuck’s sake, don’t let political parties dick about with the judiciary, because as soon as you let some asswipe president choose the supreme court, you basically don’t have a judiciary.
If the president so much as breathes a word in support of violence at the Capitol, put them in fucking jail for the rest of their fucking life. Straight away. We mean it.

Now for the followup question:
Will these ads be in the form of namedropping corporations and products as the “official government sponsor/provider/service” or will it be in the form of an ever-changing constitution that due to its ephemeral nature can only exist digitally and will require a 30-second ad to access?

The US legal system already has more than enough corporate sponsored laws. The copyright law is not called “Lex Disney” for a joke. And those laws are way more profitable than any ad in a document nobody actually reads could be.
