Whatever your opinion about recent supreme court decisions, this has all underscored what has been true for a long time:

Legislating via the judicial branch is a bad idea.

If it only takes 5 out of 9 people to make laws for 600 million, it only takes one seat change to revert them.

That won't stop people complaining about it.
