	Supreme Court of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Court consists of the Chief Justice of the United States and eight Associate Justices, who are nominated by the President and confirmed with the "advice and consent" of the Senate.
		The Supreme Court was established by the Constitution of the United States, which was implemented in 1789; under the Judiciary Act of 1789, the Court was to be composed of six members—though the number of justices has been nine for almost all of its history, this number is set by Congress, not the Constitution.
		Supreme Court building in Washington, D.C. After the federal government was established in Washington, the court was housed in a small, basement room in the United States Capitol (see W. Rehnquist, The Supreme Court).

		The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States.

		Justices have their jobs for life, unless they resign, retire, or are impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate (the removal process as described by the Constitution).

	Social Security is Unconstitutional
		The Supreme Court's ruling on the AAA was a major rebuff for F.D.R.’s socialism and it was important for Social Security as well since it seemed to portend what lay ahead for the Social Security Act.
		F.D.R. was bitter about the Supreme Court striking down his socialism in favor of liberty and F.D.R. would derisively refer to the justices as "those nine old men." It didn’t matter that only four of them consistently opposed his socialism.
		This sudden switch by Justice Roberts is referred to as “the switch in time that saved nine” or “the switch in time that socialized nine.” As an attorney, I consider the social security decisions to be in the top ten most shameful decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court.
