The unforunate part of this idea is that both conditions will have to be tested in order to determine which of the two were better, meaning we'd have to try slavery, genocide, rape, or pretty much anything really. This system doesn't work because there are some things we know are wrong without having to attempt them at least once.

And you could have a bill of rights.
