"legal" for other$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. I'm not sure that relativity of the law is actually avoidable (it's not possible nor desirable to write perfect laws for absolutely everything), but it ought to be at least universally honestly recognized and reduced constantly to only what is necessary to implement justice as best we can for as many individuals as possible. That's an unending eternal task no matter who is in power.
