Might has always made right, always. From the American Revolutionary War to the Arab Spring.
In modern society, the laws of the land are enforced under physical duress by the police (and sometimes military). If you break a law, the might of the nation will physically detain you and lock you in a room for years, or even kill you outright, depending on the conditions of the violation.
The question is, who's might makes right - does 'society', in control of the police and the 'might' side with 'culture' or 'business' in these cases?
