The courts have too much power, and have had too much power for far too long. For me, personally, I don't really care. I don't see that there are that many tax benefits for average people, but hell most of my tax customers lie about their marital status anyway, especially if children are involved, it is monetarily beneficial to claim head of household. Illegal if you are married and have not been separated, but very common. Of course it all depends on the tax bracket. I deal with more EITC customers than the higher-tax bracket clients.
Anyway, I'm getting way off course.
I would like to see a nation-wide vote. What has happened to democracy in this nation? It is ruined by an outdated electoral-college system, and a court system that is out of control. Oy vey. I'm on my soap box.
I have often wondered what would happen if the very concept of judicial review were challenged, going back to Marbury vs. Madison.
