5 Elements of Good Law
1. Generality - Laws shouldn’t be specially carved out to benefit one group or to attack or harm a narrow group of individuals.
2. Prospectivity - This is the constraint on ex post facto laws. Laws should always apply in the future and never to the past.
3. Publicity - Laws should be broadly published and well known, both to the representatives themselves and general public.
4. Consent - Laws must be generally acceptable to those who will live by them.
5. Proper due process - Due process means that the law is meted out equally and fairly with each similar crime being treated the same. Justice must be blind.
Good list. Thanks.
I don’t see a bullet that says “thousands of pages long”.
I think a boycott of all C of C members by every loyal American is about in order.
“Justice must be blind.”
No, Justice must be wise, with both eyes open!
The difference between the “greek myth of the goddess of justice” and the God of Abraham, Isaac, the Father of Jesus Christ!
It’s the concept of blind justice that has allowed the Obama creeps to “tip” the scales while claiming...”Blind bur Fair Justice”!
This is probably still taught in law schools. At this point, elements of a good law is the same as teaching the kids how to catch skittle-pooping unicorns.
