Is 'English Common law a product of the free market?
If so, Statute Law might be thought of as 'nationalised law?
The difference between, what is lawful (Common Law) and what is legal (Statute Law).
And whatabout the new kid on the block - Regulatory Law?
That is, does English Common Law preserve freedom, liberty and the Rule of Law? And Statute Law and Regulatory Law restrict freedom and liberty, and compromise the Rule of Law where they conflict with Common Law?
The $64,000 question being, can we do without Statute and Regulatory Law? Relying solely on English Common Law to protect people and their property?
Asking for a friend.
