Judges are not there to make laws.

Congress makes laws.
Executive branch enforced laws.

Supreme Court makes sure that the laws are congruent with the constitution.

The biggest problem in our current government is “regulation”. Basically agencies create rules with the effect of law without any legislative process.

Another issue is just “big government” in general. Most things should be left to the states as stipulated in the constitution. Our federal government is out of control.

Making additional laws from the bench is counter to our constitution.

if people in their 20s hold their Congressmen's feet to the fire it wouldn't matter so much who is on on SCOTUS

This is where we need to be.
Conservative judges are a step in this direction.

The left is playing a "win at all costs" game. They feel their victory is inevitable so that they don't care how they get there. They are willing to water down the constitution and checks and balances for their benefit.

Having a constitution that means something (not anything or everything) is a step in protecting what makes this country great. "The great balance" because laws and amendments should be how this country is run. Not from the executive branch or from the courtroom.

This is why I'm usually in favor of half controlling part of the gov't, half controlling the other part. Too busy screwing each other over to be bothered with screwing us over.
