IMO many law students get brainwashed in law school. A friend of ours graduated from Villanona and Notre Dame law school.
He was raised as a conservative and actually goes to church every Sunday. He became a judge and ran as a Democrat. He always votes democrat.
He gets annoyed when you talk to him about tort reform.
fewer lawyers in politics?,, I’d say thats good.
if there were just fewer lawyers, that would be fn great.
Jailbound John Edwards’ biggest mistake was jumping off the rear fender of the ambulance he was chasing to reroute himself into politics. Law students, take heed.
As long as there is a dollar to be made with little effort to get it there will be lawyers running for public office.
Not all lawyers are good lawyers. The bad ones are politicians.It’s their fall back plan.
Yup, those law degree folks have demonstrated such a matchless mastery of the laws of economics and physics.....that they really should be our leaders.
How am I gonna get rich off all that graft and corruption when the Treasury goes bankrupt and the ChiComs put us on the 87,000 Easy Payment Plan?
I would prefer the ratio of lawyers to humans that Japan enjoys. While there are a few things government does which requires the advice of the legal profession, government is so entrenched in so many aspects of our business lives we really need more people experienced in other fields rather than a hoard of ultra liberal lawyers (in both parties) using the law as a Swiss Army Knife.
We need a cross section of Americans not only lawyers to be our public SERVANTS. If the only tool in your tool box is a law stay out of OUR government and practice your attempts to twist the law in the courtroom.
Our Constitution CANNOT survive any more lawyers. Hell with government pumping out 80,000+ pages of new laws and regulations every year nobody knows what is and is not legal. Even the very misnamed “Supreme” Court judges cannot get past their political bias and agree on the few pages comprising the US Constitution yet we allow the cancer of lawyers to add more and more laws/regulations every year. STOP IT.
Until we reach a parity of elected officials with real life experiences we should not elect/re-elect any lawyer.
There will still be enough incompetant lawyers to become politicians.
P1: How many jokes are there about lawyers?
P2: too many to count
P1: no, there are two jokes about lawyers, all the rest are true stories.
Good start in the process of cleaning up the cesspool of politics. Garbage in - garbage out!!!
