Re: "Our republic has a few people in positions of enormous and relatively unchecked power: actually,
the Supreme Court is the only example that comes to mind right away"

Actually the power of the Supreme Court is checked by the ability of Congress to pass new laws and (with the States) to amend the Constitution. It is also constrained by the fact that the Judicial Branch has no method of enforcing its decisions. It must rely on the Executive Branch to do that.
