    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
