Supreme Court justices are some of the most powerful people in our government.
They are also among the least accountable, playing by their own set of rules.
Is it any wonder that the American people have lost faith in them?

What is wrong with the solution approach of making nonpartisan Justices more valuable? My suggestion:
"A nonpartisan Justice shall be able to compel two junior partisan Justices to recuse themselves."
That would make a nonpartisan equal three partisans.
Nonpartisan defined as "confirmed by a majority of the Senators of BOTH major parties", which used to be the norm. Joke time? RBG was the last surviving nonpartisan, but too nice to recuse anyone even if she'd been able to...
