From Qexigator's user page:"Qexigator notes Jimmy Wales's pov (Recorded Aug 10, 2007) [11]: ... what makes life worth living, is having creativity and productivity, building things that are useful. (Recorded On: Aug 10, 2007) _Comment:Zachary Wolk: the concept of some "Objective Truth" negates Subjective Idealism, this only addresses one element of truth. Productivity being an idol is also a counter-productive model for change, we need to stop production until we can figure out how to produce more responsibly.""

So, let's talk purpose
I would begin with this premise: "The Black's Law Dictionary, 2nd ed. (Preference to the 2nd edition as opposed to the later editions being from the original meaning of terms relating to the original meanings of common law, not the codified and statute laws developed in the past century and redefined by later editions of Black's and other law dictionaries.)

What Common law is. 1. originated, developed, and formulated and is administered in England, and has obtained among most of the states and people of Anglo-Saxon stock.

2.'Common pleas' law comprise the body of principles and rules of action relating to the government and security of persons and property, deriving authority solely from usage and custom of immemorial antiquity, or from judgments and decrees of courts affirming and enforcing such usages and customs; particularly the ancient unwritten law of England.

3. rules and principles, both written and unwritten, fixed and immutable authority applied to contraversies in their entirety and cannot be modified to suit the peculiarities of a specific case or colored by judicial discretion, and rests confessedly upon custom or statute.

4. system of jurisprudence administered by the purely secular tribunals.

5. the force and authority in the united States designating that portion of common law of England adopted and in force at the time of the Revolution; not since expressly abrogated it is recognized as an organic part of the jurisprudence of most of the united States.

6. the common law may designate all that part of the positive law, juristic theory, and ancient customs of any state or nation which is of general and universal application, marking off special or local rules or customs. As a compound adjective, common law is understood as contrasted with or opposed to statutory, sometimes equitable or to criminal."
