Whatever else may be said about such a system, it is neither democracy nor constitutionalism.

Because it's entirely dependent upon interpretation, or just plain recognition of previous decisions, how is abolishing judicial review going to help?

It sounds like you'd abolish the process of review simply because you're frustrated with the arbitrary nature of the actions of some judges. (Who isn't frustrated among us that don't agree with an outcome?)
