Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: The Law of Unintended Consequences The Law of Unintended Consequences. Quite a law, and one that few understand or apply to the world around them. What this law says is that man can not forsee all the consequences of ANY act that he takes. Even when a man or men take actions with the very best of intentions, there can not be a guarentee that what comes of that act will be entirely good. However, when men take actions that involve power and/or money (but really, is there any difference between money and power?), the chances of forseeing the future, i.e., consequences of the action, is dim indeed. And the chances that the actions taken will result in something good are, to all intents and purposes, non-existent. The US Constitution is a case in point. Any time that you look around you at the problems in America, you must remember that what you are seeing is the fruit of the Constituion; i.e., a direct result of the establishment of Washington, DC, through the Constitution. The Constitution is little understood today, and it was little understood when it was first written and established. But this is not to say that many did not forsee that there would be problems, and warned of such, and it is clear that many involved in the writing of the Consitution knew exactly what they were doing. In actual fact, the Constitution is one of the most deceptive and dangerous documents ever used to establish a nation (the United States as established and existing within the District of Columbia). The Trojan Horse in the Constituion? Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17. And how do we know that those who wrote the Constitution knew what they were doing? Because starting in 1804, there were rulings by the so-called Supreme Court of the United States (which was not established as required by the Constitution, but existed before the Constitution was written), that the Constitution did not apply to the District of Columbia, which, of course, made the District a true democracy (no law), while America was a republic (of law). Since those rulings have stood since the writing of the Constitution, it is obvious that if there were any desire to change this, it would have been done. Rule No. 1 in politics; there are no accidents in politics. Everythig that happens is intended to happen, or, it would have been changed. I read an interesting paper some years ago, which I still have somewhere; America is a Republic, but there is no one home. Basically it made the legal point that everyone has contracted out of the Republic (America) and into the Democracy of Washington, DC. Pretty well explained everything that has happened from the time of the Civil War till today.
