1- The court system is better suited to protect the individual rather than elected branches of government because they are made to specifically address civil and criminal cases. An example I can think of is how the government is right now with our current president and rising prices of everything. Shelter, food and other basic needs are no longer achievable by one person alone. Even in a multiple income household it is barely achievable to live comfortably given the amount of things we as people have to pay for nowadays. The court system better handles us as individuals rather than the branches of government because they review laws much more and have to see what makes us as citizens in just.

2- I agree that the Supreme Court is an anti-democratic part of our government because of how the judges are appointed. Many of them are appointed to agree with the current president and government standing. They are not fair to us as they are are agreeing to stay in compliance with what the government stands as to keep their position as a Supreme Court judge. Choosing judges this way in federal courts is a result of balancing power without fully doing so. As previous modules have addressed, power among the government is hardly ever given out fully and equally. It is spread thinly to appear fair to us as citizens when it is not and clearly we can see it has been contained to the higher parts of government.
