Yes, I do understand very well that the US tax code is out of control. I understand also that there are too many laws on the books (hey, I live in a county in which the law dictates that I have to have a handrail on the two steps leading from my pantry to my garage). I also understand that some prosecutors get power-hungry and damage the lives of others.

But so far I have not seen an answer to my question. Do you think there should be no laws? Are you a libertarian or anarchist? If not, what do you think the laws should consist of? Should there be laws that prevent people from injuring or killing each other? Should manslaughter be a crime at all?

You're not worth the time of day. The Master of the Obvious could tell you that you're on a Constitutional website, where we believe in limited government. The Founders had a good vision, and most of their legal system was adequate.

I believe the Founders had laws dealing with the questions you raise. I think you need to do some reading before we talk again.

Have a good day, and watch out for the American legal system wormhole weapon.
