Wickard is up there as one of the worst in terms of expansion of federal power

Worst: Marbury v. Madison

It is bad, but it can't be the worst because the rule of decision was signed, sealed, and delivered.

The best was District of Columbia et al v. Theodore Wesby.
It involved strippers, hookers, used condoms, Peaches, aka, Tasty and Clarence Thomas writing the majority opinion which was agreed with by The Notorious RBG. .

It might be exciting to read about, but I think any decision upholding qualified immunity is a terrible decision.

Kelo v New London
Horrible decision

FEC v Citizens United.
So Hillary Clinton should be allowed to weaponize the FEC to shutdown a movie that paints her in a negative light?
Anyway, the answer is and shall always be Wicker v. Filburn.

Kelo, Obergefell, plenty of other bad ones.

Citizens United enabled the US government to be owned by corporations.
It’s a combo of 2 ridiculous legal concepts: corporate personhood and money=speech.
Granted that the case was an ideal test case, because it involved Hilary Clinton and the plaintiff was named Citizens United.

Nonsense. Read the actual opinion and then what the opinion actually changed in the law.

Are you serious? Juridical personhood is a “ridiculous concept”? Would you like to go back to living in the Dark Ages?
And of course private entities are allowed to spend money on political speech. How else would anyone be able to voice an opinion?

Best was definitely supporting the Florida recount.

The main purpose of forming a corporation is that you can’t get sued personally. Did you ever take any kind of undergrad business law class?
A corporation is definitely not a person. By definition, a corporation is a non-personal entity.

Best in recent memory was for Satan to drag Ruth Bader Ginsburg down to hell
Worst was God calling Scalia up to heaven

The one that allowed personal injury lawyers to advertise again.
Car insurance rates And billboards have never been the same.

I did take an undergrad business law class.And then I took another 90+ hours of law classes on my way to my JD - including Business Associations I and II.
Juridical personhood is the legal designation of entity as being protected from government infringement of rights in addition to legally separating the liability of an entity from that of its owners and operators.
Unless you the think the police should be able to barge into S-Corps and LLCs offices without probable cause and just start rummaging through private files ...

Worst: Winchell v Mahoney
Posted on 10/1/20 at 6:36 pm to komodo
I get the Griswold penumbra argument and it’s leading to Rowe. I call that the worst based on the sheer loss of life.
Koermatsu, Plessy, Dred Scott, Wicker and the recent rulings regarding the pandemic and churches are all horrific constitutional bastardized opinions that erode the constitution

Before the Constitution there was, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
Primary is life, therefore Roe v. Wade is worse.
Pursuit of happiness was originally tied tp property, therefore being forced to sell, Kelo v New London, or forced to buy, National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius come in tied as a close 2nd.
Best is DC v Heller. As the American revolution showed, armed citizens, who could stand toe to toe, with the best military on the planet, is the only guarantor of those unalienable rights.
