Government, the true melting pot

Earlier I commented on the blog post, Jurisprudence and Political Framework KD, in response to the idea that positive law removes the aspect of choice from individuals in their everyday life. I must say that I disagree completely with that idea. Law, in no form or instance, removes choices from individuals, it may develop and create consequences for taking one action over another, but it does not remove choice. All individuals have the ability to make a choice, regardless of what the law says, in fact the decision of whether or not to abide by that law, so at its most basic sense, the creation of laws actually creates more choices for individuals. I concede that certain laws do limit options, such as those options of Jews during the time of the Third Reich, but it by no means removed completely the idea of choice from their everyday lives. Also, I do not believe that the idea of capitalism is by itself a Tradition Natural Law society, or even securely grounded in it. If anything, the laws of capitalism are extremely positivistic and goes directly against natural law in many instances, especially this society with the concepts of welfare and Medicaid. For me, there is not actual political system or societal group that can be associated of defined by the type of jurisprudence that reigns there, because each system draws upon ideas from all areas of jurisprudence and incorporates them as that society and system seems fit. It is this concept, of taking individual parts from each system that debilitates and destroys the theory that each form of political government can be directly associated with a form of jurisprudence.
