What do we need a Congress for when we can have rule from the bench?

Congress does not have the power to do whatever Congress wants to do.

You should have learned that back in grade-school.

Or did your Marxist education ever teach you that?

Stupid strawman.

Congress’ job is minding the business of the federal government. Little of what congress does these days falls into that category, and the courts are our only avenue of redress when congress exceeds its bounds. We do not have the power to direct the votes of our “representatives.”
