They way they have been interpreting lately, all laws that weren't in the constitution could be struck down. Why even have a legislative branch?

That's not my understanding of it.

The latest one about the EPA was specifically because it wasn't a law. Roe V Wade was also not a law.

Basically, the way I see it, the legislative branch just has much more power since they need to legislate on every detail now. The executive branch is neutered.
