What you are talking about is legislation from the bench. This is a problem because there is no current check and balances on the Supreme Court outside of state ratification.
Need a constitutional convention and include a check on the Supreme Court by the states. If 26 state legislatures votes to nullify a ruling it's overruled by the states.
States should just ignore the rulings they find unconstitutional. I guess the civil war (and Eisenhower and LBJ sending troops to enforce federal laws) ended that, but ideally that's the way it would be. Or it should be like the EU where if a state can't abide by the rules, they are free to leave the union.
since when are states free to leave the union? there is no mechanism for it.
should a nation dare to leave they will be forever haunted and fucked with like the uk.
Eh, maybe they're "haunted" but they're apparently way better off now than in the EU. It's unavoidable that there would be social or economic pressure to get them to stay, but ultimately they can still leave if it's important enough.
One big problem today though is that the EU (and to some extend the US) pays states money directly to keep them afloat. This money acts like bribes and discourages the states from pulling their weight to protect their citizen's rights. That practice would have to end too before states and the people have real freedom.
