- bell-cot 2y agoTrue. And having Santa Claus make all the decisions would be even better. Unfortunately, neither Santa Claus nor an active and well-functioning legislature seem to be available.
- FireBeyond 2y agoSome would also argue that the judiciary is not particularly well-functioning, so why are we acting like that's the best option in the absence of alternatives?
- AmericanChopper 2y agoIt’s not bad to have due process. If some unelected regulator decides to invent a new interpretation for a law, and this causes some form of damages to you, then the courts are absolutely the appropriate venue to seek your remedy. That’s what due process is. This just puts judicial oversight back into a process where it had (for rather poor reasons imo) previously been removed.
