For instance if Congress said that all people over the age of 50 must be put to death because they were too much of a burden on the economy. One would not have to wait for a review of the law before telling Congress to screw off.
Citation please.

As a constitutional scholar you should have a handy referrence for something that seems to be so central to your ideology.
