Lifetime appointments made sense when fewer people made it to 70 or above. Keeping in mind the greater longevity for the wealthy/powerful/privileged in the U.S., our Supreme Court is now a generation OLDER than anything the Founding Fathers would have envisioned and likely to continue with that trend. Do we really want a court made up of 90-somethings? Because that’s where we’re headed.
