Hey Asguard!
Let's see... you said in the other thread:
Well. I agree that our legal system is not based on vengence... but I don't agree that it's justice.
For a simple reason...
For example... if you are a powerful multinational company against a small one, which one will have more money to pay for better lawyers? Which one will be supported by the government? The answer is simple: the powerful multinational. Even if the small company is the victim, it will lose the case because it doesn't has good lawyers (or enough) and the government sometimes support more the multinationals (sometimes not...). It depends on the case... Is that justice?
Yes... the reason is: power.
Besides that, justice is always associated with punishment. You have to pay a fee, or go to jail, or lose your life for something that you did. Does this solve the problem? No. Does this creates resentment, fear of vengence and vengence itself? Yes.
I'm not here to suggest a new justice system, but I have my doubts about the one we have...
Love,
Nelson
