I dont think theyre wrong . I just think that we have a system of government weve had for a long time . They dont do whats right and theyre not good people. Theyre moderately ambitious people who want to hold onto their pensions. Thats all. It can be out of control all day but that doesn't matter. We still have to abide by their decisions and make the best of the situation we have. Im not aware of anything better. As far as the supreme court goes its not so much along political lines its along ideological lines. I think most of them , if not all, truly believe that what they are doing in in the best interest of the American people and they feel that theyre rulings are constitutional and since there is no higher court theres is the ruling that matters whether we like it or not so I just dont sweat it or get bent out of shape by it. Some things they do I applaud. and some things I am appalled by but to date I haven't been consulted.I used to be like you. I felt that anyone who disagreed with the courts was wrong. As I grew older, I found that courts are not only not infallible, but that important justices, appointed by politicians, are anything but impartial. They are appointed in hopes that they will render judgements in a particular direction. Take a look at the Supreme Court. These are supposed to be the finest judges in all of America, but over half of them find very predictably along political lines. So when I tell you that the federal government is out of control, I don't care what some court has said about it. I'm telling you that it is out of control.
