Agree, but...where in our Constitution does it say the SCOTUS has authority to unilaterally force government healthcare upon us and our required support of homomarriage?

Those were achieved by
- acknowledging Congress may levy taxes, and issue tax credits for particular behavior (say, you’re taxed $X but get $Y credit in taxes for mortgage interest or having health insurance)
- acknowledging “equal protection” (i.e.: equal treatment) in light of long-accepted prohibitions regarding “orientation” discrimination.

Alas, these are well-established judicial principles - and those who know the law well enough can bend principles to their own strange goals.

Nowhere.

Slavery was eradicated not by Lincoln, but by constitutional amendment.

An Article V convention can overturn Obergefell, Roe and other despotic decisions.

It is our only hope. There is little time.
