>>The 'American' value system you suggest is non-transferable is in fact a collage of the Greek, Roman and British systems.<< Also Native American (I've posted before about the contributions of Native American law to the US constitution). Also, when you say "Greek, Roman and British," that includes, but does not recognize, the contributions that the Greeks and Romans borrowed from the Middle East and Far East, while leaving out the contributions that Europe borrowed from the Arabs and Turks. >>Among the laws contained in the Code of Hammurabi [Iraq], the Gentoo Code [India], and the Institutes of Menu [India], which have come down to us from antiquity, and antedate the foundation of the Eternal City [Rome] by hundreds of centuries, are to be found many precepts and formulas identical in purport and expression with those scattered throughout the treatises of Roman jurisprudence.<< constitution.org
