It should be noted that the other two branches like having the Court of Supreme Whim have the final say. It saves them from having to take a stand on controversial issues.

. President Buchanan secretly pushed for the Dred Scott decision thinking it would solve the issue of slavery. Obviously it did not. He also pushed for an COS along with Lincoln, which would have resolved the slavery issue if it could have convened in time. Instead more Americans got killed in the ensuing Republican-Democrat war than any other. We can still avoid making the same mistake this time.

Quite right. Draft vague laws like Obamacare and let the administrative agencies or Scotus sort things out.

It’s an outrage and antithetical to the Constitution.
