A Major Constitutional Flaw

I used to wonder why Supreme Court decisions were based on flimsy nonsense (even when I liked the decisions). It turns out that there is a simple answer. We have a Constitution that is the hardest to amend in the entire world. It is much too hard to change.  But times change, of course, and we have to keep changing. We often can't amend,  so we get new interpretations that might sound absurd but are needed. Or at times not needed.
