"The courts interpret and enforce the law. Who writes the laws? Politicians in most cases"

But laws, especially these days, seem to be very woolly and grey such that no one really knowns what is or isn't illegal until it's tested in court. At which point the judge(s) and/or jury get to decide how the law actually works. Well, in theory. There's always the highly paid lawyers funded by deep pocketed $big_Corp who will appeal and appeal and appeal before eventually settling out of court, leaving us back where we started with a woolly and grey law, unproven in court.
