Does English Common Law Apply in America?
===================================
Well, if you are libertarian, and all you care about is contracts contracts contracts, you may want to pay attention.

Have an employment contract? (ie, an employee agreement?). Does it say you cant go to work for a competitor? Minnesota law is based on old English common law in how courts enforce these contracts. CD2’s extremist Ron Paul Tea Party Libertarians in the republican party object to this, insisting that history of law in general is invalid; only modern laws we make now (meaning after 1990) are valid. Thats how they want civilization to be run, which makes Libertarians (and the liberal philosophy they base everything on) extremely dangerous to civilization. Why is the Tea Party so against history based law? One reason is they think marriage is a private contract and marriage is none of the state’s business. But the republican party historically imposed marriage laws on the south in order to give former slaves the right to marry. The GOP led government wrote marriage laws – and they weren’t just private contracts. Libertarians hate this about the republican party and get very angry when told of it. Which is why I have half the republican party assholes blocked on facebook.
The Tea Party radicals in Minnesota want gay marriage. Thats why they are against old english law and the rights of englishmen. BTW, the rights of englishmen are why we have the 2nd amendment.
Followup: Bill Pentelovitch (shown above) wrote the wrote the chapter on non-compete agreements in the Minnesota Business Torts Deskbook. The rule in Minnesota is pretty similar to most other states, and that is old English common law,” Penteovitch said. “There are only two states that have laws that are very restrictive of noncompetes, and thats North Dakota and California. Thus Pentelovitch affirms the common law, from a thousand years ago, runs our daily lives. History *IS* important, despite what the Ron Paul fanatics and other jackass republican idiots say about it.
