I think it is the fact that 'law' seems to equate to monetry value nowadays
more than any form of actual justice.

People seem to turn to proving something by law as opposed to actually
'working' it out.

And it is not only the outcome (litigation, payments, agreements) it is also
how much you can put into a case (the more you can pay the better vchance
you have of 'winning') - certain lack of balance, equality, fairness - and
justice is depicted by a balanced scale!!!!!

A personal gripe of mine, but funny how it has 'sttrangled' this thread!
