    Logic and reason never stopped monied forces from twisting the letter and spirit of the law to suit their own desires.

      Sorry, I think that’s a fairly American take.

      Money can exert influence on law makers, sure.

      In my experience here in Australia though, courts are pretty good at interpreting the law without undue influence.
