      (Do try to speak plainly. It makes the conversation run more smoothly.)

      Yes, a system of laws made by humans. But that system is itself not human. Any more than a car or a toothbrush.

        Dictators are both the main beneficiary of the system of laws and its promoters, because they ARE the law.

        But the universe is gameable, the formation of governing is a play in the game, as is reaction outside of governing. The game is the universe.
