    The Supreme Court is free to change their mind. They once ruled that segregation was legal, and then later changed their minds.

    Not exactly. Plessy v. Ferguson established that segregation was legal if it was Separate, but Equal. And Brown v. Board of Education did not overturn that, it said that because the it was not equal, it was unconstitutional, not that the concept of segregation was unconstitutional.

    Perhaps you're not aware, but the Supreme Court didn't "make [a law] that depend[s] upon [an]OTHER law". The Supreme Court doesn't make laws, period.

    Right, they set precedence that every lower court will be forced to follow in the interpretation of other laws. Is that REALLY much of a difference though?

    He's close enough that the difference is negligible.

    In the United States, wealth is highly concentrated in a relatively few hands. As of 2007, the top 1% of households (the upper class) owned 34.6% of all privately held wealth, and the next 19% (the managerial, professional, and small business stratum) had 50.5%, which means that just 20% of the people owned a remarkable 85%, leaving only 15% of the wealth for the bottom 80% (wage and salary workers). In terms of financial wealth (total net worth minus the value of one's home), the top 1% of households had an even greater share: 42.7%. Table 1 and Figure 1 present further details drawn from the careful work of economist Edward N. Wolff at New York University (2010).
