I still think the wheat board is a good analogy. Should the government have the right to end the wheat board, if it has been previously agreed that the wheat board can only be disbanded with consent? I think the government should have that right. The right of society as a whole to make democratic changes trumps the contract.
So you'd be okay with government tearing up contracts for land purchased for the extraction of minerals by private companies, if said extractions proved to have negative effects on the say the collective's environment?
