In response to Nat Hentoff's Jan. 30 Op-Ed column, "The imperial president," in which he quotes James Madison's admonition in Federalist No. 47 that "the three great departments of power should be separate and distinct": I suggest that we examine the facts. Has President Bush requested Congress to disband, as has happened in England's past? Has the president really stated that he can do anything in the fight against terrorism, or is this merely a figment of liberal imagination? Finally, has he used his veto pen, thereby refusing "his Assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good"?

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becom...

The Canadian legislature and Dept of Finance should address its troublesome trend of introducing major tax policy changes in technical amendment legislation, extending taxes to nonresidents, and setting retroactive effective dates. Retroactive changes to tax provisions on inducement payments, replacement property, and moving expenses are ill-advised and unnecessary. The effective date for tax laws should be changed to coincide with the date of Royal Assent, in order to provide taxpayer certainty.

A copyright system is designed to produce an ecology that nurtures the creation, dissemination, and enjoyment of works of authorship. When it works well, it encourages creators to generate new works, assists intermediaries in disseminating them widely, and supports readers, listeners, and viewers in enjoying them. If the system poses difficult entry barriers to creators, imposes demanding impediments on intermediaries, or inflicts burdensome conditions and hurdles on readers, then the system fails to achieve at least some of its purposes. The current U.S. copyright statute is flawed in all three respects. In this Article, I explore how the current copyright system is failing its intended beneficiaries. The foundation of copyright law’s legitimacy, I argue, is built on its evident ...

Our nation confronts a challenge that we face but rarely: We are at odds over the meaning of our history and why, to quote our Declaration of Independence, "governments are instituted. Only divisions this deep can explain why we are taking risks with our country's future we're usually wise enough to avoid. Arguments over how much government should tax and spend are the very stuff of democracy's give-and-take. Now, the debate is shadowed by worries that if a willful faction does not get what it wants, it might bring the nation to default.
