We should care less about attorneys and more about CPA's.
I hear that exam is worse than the Bar.
Ergo the desire to destroy Mr. Hoffman in NY-23 and Michelle Bachmann. They are both CPA's.
We need more people in Washington that understand the finality of the Accounting Equation we are broke as nation, not the mental reprogramming and lack of moral focus that occurs in law school.
I've been told the same thing, by someone that has passed both.
I agree with you about the importance of CPAs and the difficulty of their exam. Unfortunately Lawyers have the power. What is wrong with them and the legal system becomes wrong with society. The profession attracts ambitious nitwits like Murkowski.
“We should care less about attorneys and more about CPA’s.

—The new CPA exam has four sections, taken on different dates, and IIRC, only about 20% of participants pass all four sections on the first try. And if you don’t pass *all four* sections within a certain period of time, you have to go back and take them all over again until you pass them all. So, yeah, I think most people would agree that the CPA exam is much, much harder.
To correct one fact you stated- Michele Bachmann was a tax attorney, with an LL.M. in taxation before she was elected to Congress (and not a CPA). Close enough...and we need more like her.
