Misconceptions

Conventional wisdom can be misleading.

* Courts are not primarily dispute resolution forums. They are primarily legal right enforcement forums.

* Our system is primarily a rule of law system. We are democratic in the sense that we seek democratic involvement in innovation and change in the system, not that it is democratic in how day to day decisions are made.

* Unemployment is not a shortage of jobs. The absolute stock of jobs is not what matters. Unemployment is a failure of entrepreneurs to devise economically worthwhile things for people to do and to locate people who are available to do it.
