I don't think it's a symptom; I think it's the root cause.

Remember that the Senate confirms the judges. If the courts are abusing the Commerce clause or ignoring the 9th and 10th, it's because the current post-17th Senate confirmed them along party lines instead of state self-interest.

And the State will help reign that back in? (by what ‘standing’ these days? /S). Sorry, but even before the 17th, Congress was neglecting the Constitution; with no flack from the States.

I haven’t heard/read/seen a State reign in their OWN judges; I don’t see the sh!t storm (judges, all extra/un-Constitutional, etc.) being reversed even if the 17th were rescinded (IMHO, it should still go).
