When someone asks you a question about your penal code of your state can you honestly tell them you know what you are talking about? I am finding that there are very few people that understand the law. But what really gets me is not that people don't know, but that the laws are written in such a way that the average person can't understand them. It is really getting to me. What do ya'll think?

They are written in a higher/lower language, its name is Legalese. One of the reasons why it is written the way it is, is because the laws are only supposed to be interpereted in the desired way, but with the english language this is a difficult task to do, for there are only a few words which only have one meaning and most of those come from medical dictionaries.

I still want to know how Gaia can ask for donations but give out *donation collectables* and still not have that process be considered a binding transaction?

If you sign anything for it then it is a legal transaction.
Technically it is a donation, because the objects have no value outside of the Gaian universe.

What bothers me more is how many people talk like the know the law and claim they know them and will argue for hours even though they don't really know anything.
