A legal dichotomy appears possible when I read that the law and courts are competent jurisdictions. A Reasonable Person standard is important to recognize for personal, civil and business rights of individuals as well as public policy. Is it reasonably prudent to suffer for your own behavior when you know it is not popular? We lose ability as a whole when morality is not taken well by courts, is jinxed in social relations, or is punished by mass society. Empathy, character of morals, and diversity of constructive opinion need to be preferred traits in legal terms from health to business, from journalism to international relations. Lawyers listen to the top of the hierarchy and don't seem to favor people who are too ethical to be liked at work and in community and who don't get promoted to a higher level because of their character. A good leader extends opportunity to talents not always appreciated by himself or the individual's peers. The art of humanity doing things may be unfair to some degree, but Kennedy's Nome and San Francisco comparison is taken wrongly if people, authority, and power try to make situations unfair.
