Learn our history. It has always been like this. When Franklin Roosevelt was President he got a number of unconstitutional laws passed. The Court keep striking them down, which angered FDR. So he threatened to "pack" the Court by nominating several new members. If he had done so, the Court would have gone from 9 Justices to 15. The Court was cowed by his threat and began to rule in his favor.Kevinf2349 wrote:I fear that SCOTUS is going to eventually be a government leg that will help the incumbant president and congress have a backdoor to making new laws that it was never intended to have by the founding fathers.
There are many many examples in our history of the same sorts of things that go on today; corruption, politicizing of the issues, 5-4 Supreme Court decisions that anger the sitting President, sex scandals, lobbying scandals, etc., etc. Somehow America still survives.
So long as the people pay attention and kick the crooks out, the system will continue to chug along.
