We did not freeze the ability to pass legislation or have courts decide on the constitutionality of governmental processes. Have you given up on democracy?
Why is everyone so quick to say 'well, they are getting away with it, might as well let them' instead of trying to use our processes for the purposes which they were designed?
Because they tend to build-in exceptions and only the likes of R Paul and 1990s Sanders would object. At the state level you saw Newsom and co. argue for increased minimum wage --except for restaurants serving bread -ala Panera. They are not, by and large, honest.
