Does that make the White House a culture?

Werner:

Frankly, what I was trying to put across is that it is the cultural attitude
towards laws that is the big difference, rather than what is written.   What
I am effectively trying to say is that if the culture regards
avoiding/ignoring the laws, using whatever means, is possible, then it makes
the laws irrelevant.

In other words, if the laws are only ignored or managed to be gotten around
by manipulation, or paying off the correct inspector, it makes what is
written irrelevant, except to show to visiting scholars.

attitude regarding laws in the 'West' into one pot; that is not really
correct. The US, the UK and all its former colonies have laws based on the
philosophy of British Law, which is as you alluded to. However, most of the
rest of Europe has a philosophy of laws based on Roman Law—that is much
closer to the Chinese attitude than the US one.
