    And if The Constitution told you to jump off a bridge (or to use government force to maintain a monopoly on regular delivery of civilian snail-mail), would you?

    Congress, the representatives of the people, create the laws,
    The President, the head of state elected by the states, executes them
    The Court, appointed by the President and confirmed by the senate, interprets them.

    The answer?
    Alll three.
