Law

Law is inherently based on faith. One must have faith that the legislature has the power to make the law, the people and police will follow the law, the courts will honestly interpret the law. If this breaks down, you must have faith that society has enough at stake to continue to work for justice.

Law is not the ink or the paper it is written on, but the human concept of what is right. There is now way to escape law. It is omnipresent simply because it exists not as a tangible element but as an intangible concept.

»[T]he business of fortune-telling is inherently fraudulent... its regulation or prohibition is required to protect the gullible, superstitious or unwary.«
California Supreme Court ruling, 1976

»[S]ome persons believe they have the power to predict what has not yet come to pass; when such persons impart their belief to others, they are not acting fraudulently; they are expressing opinions which, however dubious, are unquestionably protected by the Constitution.«
California Supreme Court ruling, 1984

it's got to go down because it can't go up.
You can make it go up by force but it still comes down, and with the same force that made it go up. up. down. you might talk a good killing and there's the power in that. Control the scare babies and give me burgers on the backyard grill.

"[S]ome persons believe they have the power to
predict what has not yet come to pass; when such
persons impart their belief to others, they are
not acting fraudulently; they are expressing
opinions which, however dubious, are unquestionably protected by the Constitution."
