How does Walter Williams explain the role of a U.S. Supreme Court justice?​

Social Studies

Answer:

Explanation:

He compares the role of a supreme court justice to that of an umpire in baseball or a referee in football or hockey.

He says for example, that those neutrals would never favor a team for person reasons. A team would never get unfair treatment if they were in a do or die match and had not been in such a match for 50 or more years while their opponents had one this match multiple times. Such behavior would be unthinkable.

He stated that one must uphold the rules as given to him. The idea of a referee or umpire falls apart a little here, but a supreme court justice is not obligated to uphold rules which are unconstitutional. His job is to fairly judge what should be decided.  It does not matter what his own thoughts on abortion might be: he must rule on what the constitution would say about such matters.

Sometimes it is not always easy.

What kind of materials did the ancient Greeks use in ordinary homes?
natima [27]
The ancient Greeks actually lived in houses made of dried mud bricks. Unfortunately, their walls are not very strong. It was common for houses to be broken into pieces, and most had to be renovated. The roofs of the houses are covered with mud panels and the windows are small and covered with wooden shutters.
