Great conversation with a career Judge from Boston, now retired. Thankfully a strict constructionist. Covered a broad range of topics.

Insight he gave me was that those who were in the military or had worldly experience prior to law school were more likely to use strict construction (conservative application of law) than those who were trained in law school right out of sheltered middle class lives (subjective “creative” interpretation of law).

Propertarianism will make legal construction as concrete as humanly possible with existing language.

He said I should teach.

Yeah. Well. Ya know. There are a lot of things I should do.

Like hug more pretty girls. lol
