I think I was taught that it was the Congress who makes
up the laws (rules) and that the SCOTUS is to give the
laws a thumbs up or down on whether the law was
constitutional or not when challenged. And at most, to
give the Congress advise as to what would be Constitutional
if the law were written differently.
Oh, so blame it on your inferior education that must have occurred prior to the Carter Administration creating the oh so critical Federal Department of Education to correct such deficiencies.
