What's the point of elections?

Another short ditty here.

It occurred to me that judges are deciding social issues, and elections are cast aside.  Such is the case with DOMA and Proposition 8.  These issues were decided by the democratic process.  Now that is unsatisfactory to some and the courts are being dragged into the matter.

Whatever happened to letting the people decide upon their own forms?  If DOMA is bad, let Congress repeal it.  If Prop 8 is bad, let the people of California repeal it.  What could be more simple than that?

Why does the Supreme Court have to decide same sex marriage?
