I heard an interesting opinion the other day. I'm not saying I agree or disagree just thought it interesting.
I was talking to some people about politics and judicial review came up. Someone said that the courts with judicial review was our version of the Communist party in the USSR. Just as the Communist party dictated how things would be run and not the actual elected officials or voters so the courts here overrule elected officials and voters and force it's agenda as a dictator. The individual stated that is was a back door way for the elites to dictate should democracy or republican representation government fail to let them have what they want.
What is your opinion on this?
