Should we place term limits on the Supreme Court justices?

Claim: Supreme Court justices should serve for life and should not have term limits. This is because the non-limited term protects them from subterfuge and it allows them to prevent injustices by using their gained experience.

Evidence 1: Federalist 78

Reasoning 1: It argues that term limits open the judges to subterfuge

Evidence 2: Roe v Wade

Reasoning 2: No term limits allow the building of experience that is then used to prevent injustices

Counterclaim: Some people believe that Roe v Wade was an instance of Judicial  Activism that would have been prevented if there were term limits.
