Which Amendment?

Which amendment would you prefer, 1 or 2?

1. A strong economy being necessary for the good of the State, the right of Corporations to make profits shall not be infringed.
2. The people have a right to a clean environment and democratic control of their government, so Congress shall make no law, nor ratify any treaty, that gives Corporations the power to challenge the laws or policies of any sovereign nation.

Amendment 1 is similar to the effect of secret trade treaty negotiations currently under way in a city near you.
