It's even easier for a contract to be morally wrong, because generally public law is influenced by the common view of morals more than private contracts. In German that would be a contract, that is "sittenwidrig". I think, the legal term in English is "contrary to public policy". Contracts to sell your vote would be an example for this, though these are illegal as well in many countries. Ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org_ __goto10.org__
