I can think of a lot of things that can exist within the constutional framework we have now as long as the USSC is expanded to reflect the number of District Courts, make packing it nearly impossible.

Others might require amendments, like the one that guarantees full civil liberties to the female half of the country that have long been taken for granted by the male half.

Reforms are absolutely vital. I just hope we survive long enough to enact them.
