Yes it can...and should be. What gives five unelected (elderly, sickly) people the right to completely dismiss the Legislative and Executive branches and decades upon decades of the legislative process? And what gives foreign law precedence over state law? It is a bit unnerving that the SCOTUS believes they are accountable to no one. (What Congress giveth, Congress may taketh away.)

What would it take to limit their terms? Would it be an ammendment to the Const (which I gather is very difficult to do)? I would be ever so interested in them having a limited term. I don't believe in an Oligarcy.

Only by changing the Constitution which is more difficult than obtaining an impeachment.

Thomas Jefferson wanted a 19 year term limit. (19 years being considered a generation).
