These are the people who give members of the court thousand dollar/day vacations and expect you to believe that it's just coincidence and good jurisprudence that the court rules in their favor every time.
I think there should also be some tax changes on capital gains such as real estate, it's silly to own a home for 2 years and sell it for a PROFIT of $499,999.99 and pay zero taxes in the USA, in addition to having reaped the benefit of homebuyer's tax credits. I'm sure the mega-mansion owners have found even more squirrely ways around it than that.

When has the US turned into a regime led by the supreme court? All my life, whenever something was up, you heard what the president did or tried to do or whatever. Nowadays, all headlines about the US are about something the Supreme Court with it's undemocratically elected judges gets to decide over all lawmaker's heads.
