Answer:
The judicial branch interprets laws and determines if a law is unconstitutional. The judicial branch includes the U.S. Supreme Court and lower federal courts.
Self-criticism can be a constructive mechanism of self-improvement and self-reflection, but it also can be very destructive. In the age of social media, we constantly have access to other peoples lives and can not help but to compare. It is all good, until this analyzing becomes more agressive towards one self. For example, 'oh, they are vacationing at such a nice place' goes to 'I am so stupid, I can never earn so much money to afford such a vacation'. Not everyone have a highly developed self-esteem, then this self-criticism becomes hard to handle and can even turn into constant anxiety and even depression. One of the most prominent self-criticizing has to do with the self-image or appearance. People want to look good and also stand out. This balace is hard to achieve. Sometimes people go as far as immitating the 'idol' or the person they think looks perfect. By self-criticizing you are almost denying your personal traits, and wanting to look like someone else. It all comes down to self-acceptance and controling your self-criticizm. If you try to look at yourself more objectively, you will have healty self-criticism that will help you improve.
The passage above from Article 1, Section 7 of the U.S. Constitution reflects the principle of CHECK AND BALANCE.
The legislative branch is tasked to make the laws, the executive branch is tasked to make the laws official and executory, the judicial branch is tasked to review the laws based on its constitutionality and oversee the court system.
These separate branches have their own duties and responsibilities but they all share the same power. The power of any one branch is checked and balanced by the other two branches to ensure that no abuse of power is committed.
To become a supreme court judge, you have to be nominated by the president, so the executive branch and then approved by congress, so the legislative branch. that’s checks and balances and going “through” the branches :)
