This needed to be done in 93 with Casey, to put an end to judicial activism. The Constitution has outlived its usefulness and I am fully post-democratic in my thinking but there is an advantage to stemming the tide. Roe v Wade style legislating from the bench is what made gay marriage possible....

Under what law are marriage licenses for butt bandits required in my state? No such law was passed when anal marriage licenses were issued.

SCOTUS "discerned" the Constitutional right to gay marriage in Obergefell.v Hodges, in the same for of judicial activism seen in Roe v Wade et Al

The constitution was admirable to some degree in its first draft when it restricted voting to land-owning white males only. The continuous amendments over time have rendered it into a shitshow.

The problem with requiring ownership of land is that it exacerbates problem of generatiobal wealth. The system envisioned in Starship Troopers is far better. Some poor people can be brilliant, capable and so on whilst some welarhy individuals can be degenrates, fools, cretins, idiots, etc.

The constitution was fucked the moment it was treated like a holy document.
