- I agree it is a very good document, and I envy it - the country I live
- in doesn't have such a constitution. I just wish you guys would _use_
- it. Your assertion about "the freest country" fails because you don't
- - it would perhaps be true if the system would work according to the
- constitution. But it does no good to have such a document just
- rotting away locked up somewhere, after even banning the material it's
- printed on.
