Today our lifespan is much longer than our founding father's, and our "world is flat", with events, and changes taking place globally faster than they ever conceived . Judges historically live out their terms remaining as unchanged conservative, liberal or moderate. Wouldn't it be better for an elder judge to have a free and open voice of criticism, while retired in the public sector, and a newer voice taking his place. Soon there will be many people living over 100yrs. of age.

The Supreme court system is useless as most or all federal agencies they the judge-ships should be subjected to public firing on a hourly basis! The opposite of lifetime appointments! The federal government is full of inept waste-full useless scums milking their connections for easy lifestyle! Age factor is irrelevant Andy Rooney of 60 minutes is at least use-full!

The purpose of the framers became that the SCOTUS doesn't be inhibited or ignited by technique of outdoors politics... the reason behind a endless time period is they could actual make judgements in a vacuum... no longer necessarilly bumped off yet no longer quite subsequently of technique of political climates. i guess that someone ought to argue that a constrained time period may make no distinction for the reason of the founders in spite of the indisputable fact that it may truly result destiny appointees. A president ought to employ a particular guy for only a particular ruling to sway a range in pick of a political coverage (i.e., he ought to employ, with congressional approval, an truly elderly jurist for a coverage or --better in all probability-- a delightful Congress may approve absolutely everyone for a little while period purpose).

Since the supreme court is so political it should have term limits...maximum 12 years. Also, they should not be appointed by the president but elected and confirmed by the congress.
