They are clearly a bottleneck in our legal system, so it's not unreasonable to suggest there should perhaps be 540 SCOTUS Justices in 60 chambers, hearing cases at 60 times the current rate.
Then why not do away with the Supreme Court and have the circuits be the final arbiters of the Constitution. To put it another way, who is to decide if one Supreme Court group differs with another in its interpretation of the Constitution? Would we then need a Supreme Supreme Court?

Violence is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and valorous feeling which believes that nothing is worth violence is much worse. Those who have nothing for which they are willing to fight; nothing they care about more than their own craven apathy; are miserable creatures who have no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the valor of those better than themselves.
