Yes, so I have self interest in the matter, but I am still right.

That is what may happen.  I still think most of the time people will want
something that is fair, but there are many cases where the few do get
screwed over by the many.  This is one of them.  That is why we must have
the Bill of Rights, so that the minority can't get screwed over too some
extent.  I didn't say this as well as I would have liked, but that probably
covers it.  I have to go.
