I would humbly ask: why even have a Constitution at all — save for some cursory document which outlined the branches of government and procedure for passing legislation?
Isn’t your proposal nothing more than a procedure for passing legislation (with a hefty crime attached for show)??
In any case, to respond to your humble question, the Constitution also designates certain individual rights for protection against the Tyranny of the Majority. The key distinction from your proposed Amendment being that if my rights alone, uniquely are trampled upon by the legislature I can’t realistically effect change through the voting process.
