   Well then, Mr. Issodhos, let me ask you the question.  Do you think there
is or should be any relationship between the law and fairness?  Certainly
the law must (ideally) derive some sort of authority from the people.
   From reading your posts I get the impression that you are more concerned
with describing the status quo than with analyzing it.  Might a government
not be better which could withstand criticism?
