>Well yeah, that's just some weird French place we bought and turned into a slave labor camp.

Well pack it up, that, the Evangeline legend and the Katrina episode of Boondocks round the tale out. Nothing else to see here.

(Actually, the slave labor camp is Mississippi these days [1])

I mean, I was just thinking about the civil law system.

The problems I described are mostly in blue states, although Texas has different problems that somehow result in basically the same issues. Like Houston doesn't have zoning, but still ends up with sprawl due to other restrictions.

Unless you’re dealing with wills and stuff, and real property the civil law system isn’t really affecting people that much because you have to have some compatibility with the other 49 states. Even divorce is not as unique as it was. But yeah, it still is a disadvantage to incorporate here.
