There is a considerable review of the various jurisdictions occurring in whatever one might call the post Ron Paul 08 efforts, in particular common and maritime laws. Rightly so, pun intended. Observe the popularity of Atlas Shrugged in the past few months, caused by the intrinsic utility of individuals resisting collectivism, and the lunacy that is wealth redistribution by fiat. So I've asked myself and others for solutions that can work to end it. Demanding either a fully common or fully corporate legal framework (at the point of a gun, in fact) seems viable. I would prefer common law, as "fictional persons" are somewhat problematic - but I could make either work. What is not an option is allowing the kind of loose application you identify above. It might well be this year that the veil falls, leaving some very naked politicians. People are pretty smart, and quite connected - accordingly the common law meme has traction, and is probably the shortest solution to the problems created by and for the jerks who covet power. I just want to be free - and in any direction I look I see Americans who agree, though possibly without having read as many books. But I'm pretty sure you'll get more positive feedback than just me. ;) Well said, and important.
