Obviously states and ctitizens in general can not agree on the proper interpretation of the Constitution, therefore SCOTUS exists. So long as there is a SCOTUS there needs to be equal representation. 9 people holding life-long seats are far too few for far too long. Special interest groups can take control too easily as has happened.

I think each state should have 1 justice. Enough of this supreme 9 crap.

In the end everybody’s life is wasted. Of 120 billion or so humans who have ever lived only a couple of hundred thousand even have more than the most basic details recorded about them. In 100 years you will be a distant name, in 1000 more no one will know you ever existed. Just live however you are comfortable with and quit worrying about wasting it.
