I think if you took every case heard by the Supreme Court and treated it the same way, they would likely make very few decisions. By these standards nothing is literal enough in the constitution to warrant a decision on pretty much anything really.
- tptacek 7y agoThat's what you'd hope! Supreme Court Justices have lifetime tenure and are completely unaccountable to the public. We're not meant to be governed by a panel of philosopher-kings.
- weioruowiuer 7y agoI can only imagine the new improved constitution. "If and only if you yell these 900 words and these 30000 phrases at an african american it's racism. But in these 90000 contexts these 1000 phrases are acceptable..." Life is way too complex NOT to be governed (at the highest levels) by philosopher kings. Supreme Court justices should (at least partially) be considered "problem solvers", not archaeologists.
