Nothing new there. Why do you think so many of our lawmakers are, in fact, lawyers? They are intimately familiar with the "system" and ways to circumvent it. Law school is not about practicing law anymore; it is about circumventing to "system" to get what one wants.

Agree, I was a government lawyer for 30 years and the new graduates who came before me in the last 15 years seemed to be heartless nitpickers who only cared about winning, not the law or humane justice. It’s about the money, not justice. When I retired, I also quit the bar.
