Judicial activism is only half the problem. Over the course of the past 250 years, we have accumulated such a vast collection of, for the most part, badly written laws, that lawyers and courts have free reign to do anything they want. Pick any position, ANY CONCEIVABLE POSITION, and with sufficient research, a good lawyer can come up with laws and precedents to support it. Presented with two equally supported cases, a judge can flip a coin or follow his prejudices and pick a side. The Law profession is aware of this problem but likes it since it gives them a powers over their fellows not unlike the priests and shaman of earlier societies. The general population is oblivious and just thinks this is the way of the world.
