Substituting will for judgment would make the case for utterly dissolving the judicial branch.

The Judiciary is the weak link in our constitutional system. Amendments should be passed reining it in. SCOTUS should stick to deciding the constitutionality of cases before it; nothing else.

Courts need to get out of ordering remedies they have no business forcing on the people. They usurp the Legislatures when they do so. Legislatures (Congress) should hit back!

“Courts need to get out of ordering remedies they have no business forcing on the people. They usurp the Legislatures when they do so.”

Great point and bears repeating. Recent history with district judges issuing orders across the entire country must not only be reined in BUT those doing it should be removed from the bench. District rulings used to only be binding in that appellate circuit but lately we have had a spate of rulings from the kingdom of Hawaii that have been so far removed from reality to as well as have been from the moon.

And this is where corruption comes in. Congress only cares about feathering their nest. Which means all they care about is staying in office. Which means they are risk averse. They dont want to rock the boat.

They abdicate much of their authority because it would mean rocking the boat if they exercised. And they are too busy feathering their nest.

So we end up with a namby pamby Congress afraid of its own shadow.
