contracts

contracts are supposed to help people. they should not be a mechanism to create Rules and Authority over people. as long as everyone consents to a contract, and finds it useful, then great. but if they don't consent, they should stop. this is just basic human decency. don't do stuff that hurts people.

stopping, of course, can be problematic. but how could it possibly be reasonable to demand anything from someone who quits a contract but the damages to you? if he pays those, you have lost nothing (except a nice opportunity. but he did not and does not owe you that.)
