New Idea: Grassroots organizations to bribe supreme court justices?

What are the chances that we can get organizations to raise the hundreds of millions of dollars to bribe SCOTUS conservatives to make better decisions?

Since it is essentially completely legal to bribe SCOTUS justices, and every action they make is largely based on such bribes from billionaires, why not get infuse some democratic money into the game to level the playing field?

And that such an idea cannot work. But then contradicts itself when asked why supreme court justices can accept hundreds of gifts worth billions of dollars.
