What I wonder about though is that with term limits, you create a situation where perhaps SCOTUS justices would be tempted to act/rule a certain way so as to increase their potential for earning after their 18 years. I don't know how you mitigate this without maybe creating a minimum age of 60 or so, so they are too old to have ambitious post-bench goals.

A lifetime ban on all political and lobbying positions strikes me as a good place to start.
