Technological Society Quotes

“I will now reveal a secret that lawyers, its professors, and most significantly its judges especially those with the most power such as the Supremes work constantly to hide and that they use to make law school appear to be and seem difficult: the law is what judges on any particular day say the law is. We are not governed by the rule of law but by the rule of judges. Maybe there was such a thing as the rule of law at one time when legal cases involved deciding whether Farmer A’s cow trespassed on Farmer B’s property but in a Technological Society in which all words are vague and all rules indeterminate, any set of facts can be made to comply or to be in violation of any rule. They all do it, conservative, liberal, or whatever.”
