Please elucidate hw the laws of the united states, canada, the
united kindom, or indeed, any european union country (pardon
for missing your country here) does not fit the same criterion.
If I wish to go out and help myself to the extra ``petty''
cash lying around in banks, I shall soon find whether the laws of the
land are considered more important than the people.
I guess the ANSI C standard is fascist too. Hmm.
