>>In fact, that's what happened with the ACA and a court with a conservative majority failed to uphold the complaints.
Right. There is a system of checks and balances with every example affirming that it seems still to kerb excess for the benefit of the people. To focus only on one side of that model surely is like a Greenie protesting use of fossil fuel while driving a SUV and vacationing in Hawaii.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
