Governance

Archaic, Complex, & Asymmetrical Laws

Lacking misuse protections. Poor governance structures.

Bad law isn’t just old statutes — it’s complex, asymmetric rules that are easy to weaponize and hard for ordinary people to navigate.

What keeps this stuck

  • Colonial-era control logic still embedded in many statutes
  • Populist drafting that skips rigorous parliamentary scrutiny
  • Eroded misuse protections — strict bail rules, reversed burden of proof
  • Patchwork amendments that make compliance a full-time job
