So the SCOTUS is in charge of interpreting the law amended by we the people. Telling us what we mean when we send them a law so that they can enforce our laws on us by their measure? Is that what you're saying?
If the executive branch tries to enforce a law that someone believes is unconstitutional it is referred to the Federal Court system for a ruling. The lower courts rule as to Constitutionality, but their ruling can be appealed up to the Supreme Court for final adjudication.
If it is ruled unConstitutional it cannot be enforced by any court in the land.
The relevant interpretation of the Constitution is based on the original words in it, it's amendments, and the precedents set by Federal Court systems through the years.
You mean a precedent where the court rules something to be a tax that is clearly not a tax?
If you'd like to be on the Supreme Court get a law degree specializing in Constitutional Law, practice for 4 decades or so and rise to the top of your profession including many years on the Federal Bench. That will get your odds up to 1 in a few thousand.
I assume that you have zero of those qualifications so you have zero credibility in their field.
So, stick to plumbing expertise or whatever you have.
