[Avodah] Torah government - kim li

[Eli Turkel]

another major impediment to implementing halacha in commerce is the cocept
of "kim li"
This basically says that the one who holds the money can argue against any
posek or bet din by showing that at least one or two other poskim hold like him.
Hence, if all poskim of our generation agree to some principal it
cannot be enforced
since (lets say) 2 poskim from the previous generation disagreed.

As stated in a previous post this dramatically decreases the
opportunity for changes
in CM halacha to respond to changes in commerce
