Reading about euthanasia in Canada got me here. Quite impresive that such decisions come down to philosophical question 3:49 of what are the borders of the court. Feels a little bit like a trolley problem.

Good one. The problem with the judicial branch is every power they have they gave themselves. The constitution says nothing about judicial review. Yes activism is a problem. There are judges that disregard the law are poor judges. However, if the law is silent they should have a say as long as it’s constitutional. Congress can regulate the Supreme Court yet they don’t. Judges don’t need lifetime appointments it very undemocratic by nature.

So, enacting unconstitutional laws is OK?

TicoTimeCR read the last sentence of the first paragraph.

Clear as mud. No idea what that sentence has to do with what I wrote.

TicoTimeCR I was just saying if the law is silent then they should make a ruling as long as it’s constitutional.

And by corollary, you're saying if a law exists, judges should abide by it - regardless of its constitutionality. I.e. you're OK with enacting unconstitutional laws, and not OK with judges who strike down those laws. This is the primary function of higher courts.
