Any new financial order for the world must tackle the three chief challenges of our age.
I can't get my knickers in a twist about my age and ageing in an industry that caters to the ids of 14-year-olds.
No Congress ever has seen fit to amend the Constitution to address any issue related to marriage. No Constitutional Amendment was needed to ban polygamy or bigamy, nor was a Constitutional Amendment needed to set a uniform age of majority to ban child marriages.
