"It will be of little avail to the people that
the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that
they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they
be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant
changes that no man who knows what the law is today can guess what it will be
to-morrow."
--James
Madison, Federalist No. 62, 1788
