Ignoramus! SCOTUS decides 80 cases a year. The federal district and federal appellate courts decide thousands and thousands of cases, and more importantly, the appellate courts are the last word on what the law is on a great, great majority of issues. I don't think you clerked at the appellate level, so maybe you wouldn't know this. Also, you're a transactional lawyer, right? In that case, just go to dinner and make a deal. Leave the thinking to us.
