Every law that is passed must be valid with the constitution or it can be overturned by the supreme court. Any person who is penalized not in accordance with the constitution can use it to seek relief in a court of law.

The one thing that hasn't changed is the question about what makes good government. If we can answer this question we maybe able to create a better government for the common good.
