/v/Showerthoughts is a subverse for you to share all those thoughts, ideas, or philosophical questions that race through your head while in the shower.
"Showerthought" is a loose term that applies to any thought you might have while carrying out a routine task like showering, driving, or daydreaming.
Please be respectful of others' submissions. If you disagree, explain why in the comments. Downvoats are reserved for submissions you don't like or comments that do not add to the discussion, not opinions with which you disagree.
RULES
-
Please refrain from shower "observations;" we've heard them all before
-
Ideas for Voat features should be posted in /v/ideasforvoat, even if you think of them while in the shower
The spirit of this subverse's rules is to foster a community where dissent, free thought, and open discussion are tolerated, limited only to trolling, excessive abuse, site-breaking rules, or content that is better suited for another subverse. All moderation activity should operate within this spirit.

I don't believe the case would be able to go to the supreme court because in order for the supreme court to hear a case, it has to have and effect on one person in particular. I'm not a government expert though, so don't take my word for it.

It's a reasonable point. For a case to go to court, a whole bunch of jurisdictional questions must be determined. You are thinking of things like the power of the court to decide the type of matter, an actual case or controversy, a personal state in the outcome for the parties, etc. And then there are exceptions to these rules.
These are complicated rules and they may bend to the will of the court. Thus the language "I wouldn't be surprised." :)
