After 150 years of passing laws, with the laws, regulations, legal decisions and so on in NZ, you'd think we'd have enough now. Plus we inherited a whole bunch of laws as part of the British Empire which were adopted at independence, which is still not complete as the Queen is still my overall boss. It was only a couple of years ago that the Privy Council was supplanted with a NZ Supreme Court. Normal humans can't even start to know even a tiny fraction of the laws so we either do nothing or break laws. Even the lawyers and courts don't know the laws. It takes them months or years of legalizing, appealing, appealing again and finally going to the Supreme Court to figure out the situation on any particular aspect. The Supreme Court decides with a split decision. And we the sheeple are supposed to be able to know in 5 minutes or a split second what is legal to do and what isn't. Yet it takes the legal system years to figure out, $millions [the main point as they just love money], and then they are unsure and have to set another split decision precedent. I'd replace all the laws with property definition laws and victim protection laws, based on the ideas that property is owned by somebody or some group of shareholders and that attacking, damaging or risking other people's property is not allowed. That would still leave plenty of business for lawyers and judges, but would cut out screeds of dross. The first thing to do is create Tradeable Citizenships. Then we'd have a starting point for value of the property we all own. That would be a new law. Ooops, straight away, a new law. But that would mean canceling lots of other laws to do with citizenship, immigration etc. Mqurice
