The moral of this story is Don't vote for Lawyers. Lawyer legislators have created a system that is lawyer friendly to the detriment, often, of others.
Correct. That's why legislation is written in exactly the way that it is. Terms are used without definition precisely so that they can be widely interpreted. You'd think that legislation would be written with the same exactitude that is evident in business contracts. They leave very little wiggle room. Today's bills are written in such a way as to invite judicial re-interpretation. Of course, the best change that could be made would be require that every bill deal with a singel issue and that the first sentence or paragraph cite the Article and clause of the Constitution that makes it a Constitutional matter.
