Because we know that ignorance and stupidity is never found in legislators?
What you propose is exactly the opposite to how our system has worked for several centuries. We are a common law country.
What a stupid and ignorant person you are! Here I have to explain basic facts of life to you again! It does not make any difference whatsoever if a legislator is ignorant. The laws they pass are still laws.
The law is what the legislators intend for it to be, whether it is grounded in ignorance or not. The law *IS* the will of the legislature in majority vote.
What you propose is exactly the opposite to how our system has worked for several centuries. We are a common law country.

You are the one saying "We are a common law country." as if all of our law is common law when it only comprises a part of our system of laws.
You are also the most obtuse person I've ever known who has the audacity to proclaim that "There is no such thing as Positive law." and who continues to do so despite being shown NUMEROUS times that you have no idea what you're talking about.
We are discussing the common law.
I'm discussing your status as the resident village IDIOT!
