We have the water boards in the Netherlands that are independent governing bodies with their own taxes and elections. They didn't get absorbed by government because people don't trust generic elected officials. I find it absolutely fascinating because it's so incredibly boring. Their job is to manage everything involved in living below sea level.
It shows that government doesn't have to be one giant hierarchical organization arguing over one giant budget. You can use the formula to house this legal philosophy and make it reasonably immutable. Place it outside the control of the generic political battle ground.
Just having a bunch of obvious static values would already stop the most crazy modifications like making corporations into people and money into speech, how male and female should be defined. As if they ran out of real work.
It would be interesting to see an entire philosophy bolted into place.

I'm most offended by blurring the entire spectrum from incompetent and corrupt to brilliant and hard working.
