And just think in the new directions petty tyrannies can go if they can just overturn USSC rulings!! Hey, if NY, CA, and Maine can get other states to overturn property rights when it comes to anti-smoking laws, or asset seizure, the USSC will be irrelevant! Or what about rulings on "diversity?!" Just think of the new preferences that will be protected then!

Oh man, such an arrangement would SURELY be a path to greater freedom wouldn't it! After all, the politicians that infest, er, inhabit our statehouses are of a far different and superior moral quality and wisdom than those in the federal government.

Just look at 2000 with the USSC and Florida's supreme court. It's so apparent how wise and impartial and pro-freedom the local government's judicial arm was in that case, isn't it?
