To lighten the mood - we have reached page 69 as of the time I posted. Congratulations everyone - here's a cigar - do with it what you will.
If the argument you've offered about the amas standards and collusion with law is a persuasive argument - then there's no reason that these sorts of organizations shouldn't exist - bound by law- within the law. You're essentially saying that your argument is only true for the ama and not some other organization with the same attributes in the same situation.
I understand that you don't feel that there are any, or should be any - but there's no reason that there couldn't be any - if I'm persuaded by what you offered.
Quote:That's a huge 'if'. Assuming that there was such a thing as a torturer's association...that had been around and robust for as long as the AMA...was bound by law (which by definition a torturer's club isn't)They are only bound by law -to be outside of law- because we say that a conflict of rights exists. They can not waive, or someone else's right cannot be waived, and this prevents their business from operating.
