Re: Comment my megacorporation
I'm pretty sure that the 'remove' euphemism referred to arranging for the 'for life' part to become suddenly very relevant.

Re: Comment my megacorporation
Sorry, I'm not going to go into massive detail on this. It would be a huge sidetrack, and it would use up more time than I have.

And you have to realize that the Constitution was written by people who were massively suspicious of the abuse of governmental power, and whose top priority was to create as many obstacles to it as possible. Every sweeping measure such as you envision is up against laws designed to slow it down.

Anyway, if someone starts offing Supreme Court justices, the Republican and Democratic Parties would call in their allies in the federal bureaucracy and the military to clean house. A brief coup later, the Genesis Party is a bad memory, and the Democratic and Republican Parties take control over the government again. At that point, the corporations involved with the Genesis Party have their assets frozen, their officers arrested, and anyone involved with the illegal subversion of American democracy is facing treason charges and the death penalty. |

The three steps will not take much time and, when the job is done, the judges will be able to reheat their seats as if nothing had happened. You can also skip the first step and use nanobots. In addition, Genesis have two free appointments, one in 2017 and another in 2018. Last edited by Alonsua; 01-11-2019 at 05:13 PM. |

It is also not in the power of the Supreme Court to declare anyone innocent of anything. They can declare that a lower court applied the law wrongly, state what law the lower court ought to have applied, and send a verdict back to be reconsidered. Or at least that's how I understand the setup; I'm not a constitutional lawyer.
