Will join in the consensus here, relative supreme court anonymity is as a rule good not bad.

Ah, the West Wing. Not only might it be a serious factor in America's final destruction (seriously) but the influence it has had on left-liberal politics this side of the pond has been far from healthy.

I don’t think it’s sad (at least for us). I’m very happy to live in a country where the laws are determined democratically rather than by 9 unelected political activists masquerading as judges.
that's exactly what the Supreme Court did when they over turned Roe v Wade.

Uh, yeah OK.

Yes, but the point is that *in practice* that means instant abortion bans across much of the US.
