Lady Justice: Justice for the Classes
Our democracy depends on the rule of law. Too many rules, some of them referred to as red tape, can halt society and keep it from being free, competitive and innovative. Not enough rules and we descend into chaos, each citizen out for themselves. The global pandemic is an example of a situation where the lack of established rules resulted in polarity and chaos, as we do NOT all think alike – surprise, surprise. Everything needs balance, thus the symbolic scales of justice held by Lady Justice.
