Hmm, I wonder what the impact of fining a governing body whenever its legislative arm makes an unconstitutional law would be. If you, say, issued a fine of 0.001% of their next budget if a law is struck down by SCOTUS, and the money was distributed to all of the other governments in the USA (1/3 to the federal*, the rest to the other states), would people start caring if their representatives were passing stupid laws?
*If it *were* the federal government that passed it, the money should probably be split amoung the states of all of the lawmakers who voted against the bill.
Anywho, random thought.
