Too many lawyers
Too many laws
Too many taxes
Too many handouts
...and people wonder why demonrats rarely do jail-time for their crime.
Pretty much shows what side of the law lawyers are on, generally speaking. Of course, that’s pretty far from being a surprise either.
Elite law firms - as corrupt as the candidates they support.
I graduated from law school in 2013. I loved it. I love the law. But I generally hate what law firms do and am generally politically on the opposite side of most lawyers.
But law school was great and helped me sharpen may skills of expression and understanding of common law and natural law. It also showed me how corrupt law schools have become when it comes to the Constitution. The Constitution as written and originally understood and written is simply not taught. That’s why most lawyers are clueless about what the real Constitution says and means and the same with most people. I intend to do whatever I can to fix that.
Lawyers write the law. Then they work their ways around it. They get $$ on both ends. Rats are more useful to them.
Tort reform would put a big dent in lawyers income and lifestyles.
The legal community knows the democRATS won't pursue any tort reform legislation. The Republicans are more likely to push tort reform with limits on jury awards, etc.
