When one group of {people, animals, bugs} have different authority and also different rules for conduct than others, corruption almost invariably follows. http://aeon.co/magazine/society/game-theorys-cure-for-corruption-make-us-all-cops/
You bet! My previous argument was not that these rules are good, but just that they are internal rules, nothing more. And as such, they can be turned on or off at contract time. To call them a "Bill of Rights" is to add unnecessary drama to the situation. A minor point, I know.
