Subject: SLS: The essence of slavery itself.

"But the fundamental rights to life, liberty, and
 the pursuit of happiness, considered as individual
 possessions, are secured by those maxims of constitutional
 law which are the monuments showing the victorious progress
 of the race in securing to men the blessings of civilization
 under the reign of just and equal laws, so that, in the
 famous language of the Massachusetts Bill of Rights, the
 government of the commonwealth 'may be a government of laws
 and not of men.'  For, the very idea that one man may be 
 compelled to hold his life, or the means of living, or any
 material right essential to the enjoyment of life, at the
 mere will of another, seems to be intolerable in any country
 where freedom prevails, as being the essence of slavery itself."

 Yick Wo v. Hopkins, 118 U.S. 356, 370 (1886)
