If you were divorced in 1876 and were considering re-marriage next year, do you really think that voters in the state in which you live would be the proper authority to determine whether or not it is a good idea? Well, if you add the interests of a billionaire to the equation, this is precisely what you get, at least in Missouri.<\/p>\n
But first, think about this issue from a bird\u2019s-eye perspective. Suppose that two people had been married years ago and divorced not too long after that. Since that time, they have often had conversations about re-marrying, but it never got very far because one was far wealthier than the other and each of them owned their own fiefdoms and were not eager to share control.<\/p>\n
But then, a group of people who are vaguely familiar with both of them decide that they have the power to decide whether or not they should get remarried. Many of these people had never met either of them, but once somebody decided to make it financially beneficial for them, they took it upon themselves to be the arbiters and would decide about a remarriage.<\/p>\n
