Yeah, like that would be only flaw? No other real downsides to national jury of 150 million ruling on every close SC court case? Or turning them into Congressional food fights? Or having SC overruled by a collection of lower court justices? Should work fabulously, right?
Would expect Justices to simply make informal pact to swing a vote to majority each time to make it 6-3 so the power of the SC isn't undermined by a political circus every close case. Thus making a mockery or your whole premise.
