What we really need is a law to limit the proportion of lawyers elected to congress to reflect their actual numbers in the general population. < / sarcasm >

"All the extravagance and incompetence of our present Government is due, in the main, to lawyers, and, in part at least, to good ones. They are responsible for nine-tenths of the useless and vicious laws that now clutter the statute-books, and for all the evils that go with the vain attempt to enforce them. Every Federal judge is a lawyer. So are most Congressmen. Every invasion of the plain rights of the citizens has a lawyer behind it. If all lawyers were hanged tomorrow, and their bones sold to a mahjong factory, we'd be freer and safer, and our taxes would be reduced by almost a half." H.L. Mencken (1880-1956), "Breathing Space", The Baltimore Evening Sun, 1924
Mr. Mencken was EXACTLY right and nothing has changed!
