that's why parents are piling their college aged kids into law schools at record rates. they see what is happening with other "professional" jobs like engineering and tech, and they don't want their kids to see any part of that.

their are other good careers, many in health care services, construction management, and of course government and government funded services.

Law schools aren't an answer either.

Right now, we are beginning to outsource law work as well.

Before, you would have young lawyers do all the grunt work for clients, and the big kahuna lawyer, would read off on it, correct it, and present it to the client.

Now, law firms are beginning to outsource the grunt work to India. It is legal. There will be pressure on lawyer salaries when this starts to really kick in. There will actually be few law jobs out there. Unless of course, we start really jamming up the courts with more frivolous suits and need warm bodies there.

The only job that is safe, is one that can not be done by internet, fax, overseas, or by a computer/robot.

X-ray reading is now being done in India. It will get to the point that when you get blood drawn, it might be overnighted overseas to be analysed. Seriously.

Walmart workers don't get healthcare so that will be affected too. You are right though that we will all be government employees paying 80% tax rates working for our master politicians. We may have to have a revolution to take the country back.
