If you ask judges, do you always agree on everything? of course not, we divide just as you do. why aren't you transparent about it? because the people would begin to think that the law is not stable, the law is unclear. and that would not give them much faith in the law.

You see, my friends...you begin to ask the questions, 'who owns the oil?' you begin to ask the question, 'who owns the iron ore?' you begin to ask the question, 'why is it that people have to pay water bills in a world that is two-thirds water?'
