Bear with this foreign's opinion of the US legal system. |

It seems to me the Constitution is only as good as the Supreme Court wishes it to be.
Discuss.

In many cases, however, laws aren't considered simply because they might be unconstitutional.

The American Legal System is also very much about how much money you have nowadays. This is one of the Reagan legacies.
