That's interesting that you mention majority interests above. I was discussing the difficulty of creating a constitution with friends over dinner a few nights ago. Someone made the insightful comment that individuals, when charged with creating a novel system of governance, will always assume that they are part of a majority and will seek to consolidate power in that assumed majority. She recommended instead that everyone should assume that they will be in the minority and work on the structure assuming they have to protect themselves against the majority.
That's a very, very interesting insight...
I fully agree with your friend!...
