Not directly related, but re ye olde Court of Chancery, and your Hamilton angst, do you ever take the time to listen to Freakonomics on NPR? I may have already posted this but don't see where I did if I did, so here goes: Interview with author of "What's the Matter with Delaware" and interview with judge on the Court of Chancery who equivocates to justify why nothing can be changed (unless he were made King).

This is a microcosm of the powerlessness of The People.
