Re: how can the Supreme Court make an unconstitutional decision?

So the senate or the president or the boy scouts can write revenue raising bills if SCOTUS says its constitutional?
​
According to the constitution, what the SCOTUS says is constitutional IS constitutional. Doesn't mean that it's right, or moral, but merely constitutional. Some body has to have the final word on what is constitutional and what is not and the constitution makes the SCOTUS the final arbiter. Just the way it is.
