I Don't agree quite yet, but that is how one should think here. It is something to look out for. The constitutional separation of powers has often vanished. Too often recently our courts have simply looked for ways to allow the gvt to continue and ratchet up its illegal activities. Everyone knows roberts changed his decision on the last day, for instance, in the health care case. And the result is a law that makes no sense bc it's both a tax and not a tax, and it originates in the senate, where taxes cannot Constitutionally originate. Yes, people, our courts are that messed up.

Courts keep finding ways to allow gvt theft. The Kelo decision is another example. I do fear it could happen here. Here's how: if political forces push very hard for wind down and generate momentum for a new "better system", what court would be strong enough to withstand that and rule rightfully that theft has happened? Instead, judges will find some strange "middle ground" that will still screw shareholders.

Even worse is the chance that a judge will ACT as if he / she is gonna be tough on gvt, only to turn out to have been acting all along and deciding in gvt's favor. Such things do happen. But we have multiple court cases pending so hopefully the chances are reduced of that happening to us.
