The old bugaboo Interstate Clause and along with General Welfare Clause has swallowed the whole Constitution according to the DemoRats.

It maybe time to relocated the Supreme Court to Nebraska or somewhere long away from DC.

Relocation will not solve the problem, nor will the constant battle of conservative versus liberal justices.

One suggestion that came along in the Fifties and early Sixties was the Court of Union, which was intended to correct the excesses of the Warren Court. The idea was that cases could be appealed from the Supreme Court to a higher court -- the 50 state chief justices meeting en banc as the Court of Union. It was a radical fringe idea that never caught on, but it might be something to explore.
