Why would Congress wish to have a 2/3 override on a Supreme Court decision when they can impeach the offending justice by the same margin?

Because they don't have the balls too take on the judges directly. And since they won't. I doubt they plan to enforce any of this that they are purposing in a matter in which would the actually help the law-abiding citizens of this nation.

For example, if this is passed and the next day the Supreme Court declared the IRS unconstitutional, the Congress with just override the decision.

See bankrupt California to decide whether to amend the Constitution. The "lawmakers" or pay-takers will never stop while feeding their addiction to our money.
