#3 *shrug* Writing constitutions reveals the local idealists, who can then be profitably employed. But living within the constitution's strictures is so rare that only the Swiss and the Americans have thus far maintained it in the long term... although there are other countries working to catch up.

Given the certain "red lines", this is one of those amusing constitutions intended for display in a museum even before it's finalized. Perhaps the Libyans will get to write another one in another half century... just for the practice.
