"Law" is a secular written system of rules created by the society to govern itself. While the origins for these 'laws" come down to us from many parts of history and experience: they are intended to be followed to insure that the balance within the society they apply to, is maintained, to the extent possible. No system of laws is perfect, but this one is preferable to those systems where the rules exist to serve power alone. This was the single rule-of-law, under which the nation was established, (The gavel on the book above).
There was also, at that time only one law for all, administered by the several states in accordance with the Constitution. The federal government was not a factor.
This remained true until the 1886 Supreme Court decision that freed American corporations from individual or personal responsibility for their actions and this became the basis for our two tiered system of both life and law. So by 1886 this nation and its original ideals had already begun to die.
Once the foundation beneath our nation was compromised, the new Owners began to build upon that corpse of 'Law' that no longer served the people. However the framework of the long-dead Republic that remains in place today, provided the perfect cover for the expansion of Corporatism; commonly known as Fascism. Under this guise "Justice" replaced "Law" even though the concept of Justice has become totally illusory.
Everyone knows that "Justice" inside the courtroom has nothing to do with right or wrong, but everything to do with 'how the game is played.' The Sword of Justice was taken from its owner, the classical Blind Justice, and used exclusively here to indicate the power of the system to enforce official power over human circumstance; in a way that satisfies neither the human craving for real justice nor the legal passion for actual fairness.
This two-tiered system that has become the American way of 'Just- Us' has become an institution that can only be destroyed if we renounce the Special Status of all Corporate Charters and return all the courts to a single system under a single secular Rule of Law that was there before 1886. Given the globe-shattering amounts of illicit-profits at stake, it is not likely that any of this will change without an actual revolution: but it is definitely worth consideration!
