- mindslight 10y agoWikipedia and news articles should give you the details. I'd say lack of access to law (as well as its unbearable complexity) is an issue of due process and the fundamental rule of law. But you can't look to the Constitution to dictate everything - its drafters could not anticipate all future developments, and if the government is that citizen-hostile a piece of paper won't stop it. That which the Constitution does specify should be considered more as "behavioral tests", and currently the majority of our test report is failure.
