The present legal "system" uses language to obfuscate legal issues as evidenced by the fact that lawyers are needed to interpret "legal decisions" for their clients..
Congress's Article II exclusive right and obligation is to make law, but aren't they almost done after more than two centuries? Maybe a tweak here and there but.... Asking for a Fren.
Fun facts. James Madison quote: “It will be of little avail to the people, that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood…” James Madison
Federal legislature and most if not all state legislatures used to have to read proposed bills aloud in their entirety before the entire chamber before a vote could be taken.
Now they just read the title 3 times. To think, we could have been spared so may things like Obamacare if that rule as originally written wasn't consistently "waived" by our betters.
And allow adequate time for the public to read and weigh in on the issue
Considering the sheer number of lawyers IN congress explains why no simple language-just gotta build in loopholes and sneak in 'amendments'...
I am a lawyer and I agree LOL.
I do believe God's Laws are the original foundation of the Constitution-the Ten Commandments being removed is proof the existing system does NOT please God... Work off them to cover modern contingencies (at a low maximum) and the legal linguists will need training..
Quite Right. The basis of the Bill of Rights is Common Law which is based on Natural Law. Every student should be required to read Thomas Aquinas' works on Natural Law. His entire treatise is oriented in interpreting man's relationship to the Laws of Nature. This is the foundation of Western jurisprudence.
Unfortunately, all the law schools are very biased toward and advocate 'Law Positive'. Common law is taught as if it was an archaic ideology in evolution like Neanderthal man is compared to modern man. If you want to understand why lawyers are so screwed-up ideologically, its because of being fully indoctrinated in 'Law Positive'. To better understand this unfolding tragedy, simply look up -- "Law Positive versus Common Law"
Never forget that in our current system only lawyers are allowed to judge/punish other lawyers. The Bar is made up of all lawyers and only they are allowed to punish lawyers.
What’s funny is it’s typically the paralegals that write the drafts. Judges use previous case law to evidence their decision, that’s where a lot of people get lost but it also helps bc you can go back and reference it. If you use that old English assignment and take out all the big words and unnecessary language, it becomes easier to read.
So ol' Billy boy sayin "Depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is.."
