General Discussion

that every Supreme Court Justice is a political appointee by a partisan President, approved by a partisan Senate.

As long as your party is making the appointments then it is gold. If the other party is making the appointments then things are not so good.

In addition, the more this country is divided then the more ignoring the court rulings.

Courts don't have much authority when it comes to enforcing their rulings. It is up to the elected officials to do it. If your party is in power then you will be happy. If the other party is in power then it will probably piss you off.

You have to forgive me. I am an aging cynical Boomer that had faith in government dashed too many times in my long life. The exuberance of youth when John Kennedy to us "ask not what the country can do for you but ask what can you do for the country" is long gone for me. It is replaced by the Old Man shouting at the sky, I guess.
