If you’re searching for reasons as to why China has done well and the United States has done poorly at managing the coronavirus, take a look at how many high level communist party members are engineers. Then look at how many high level American politicians are lawyers.

I agree with you, but I also think our president's behavior in office is a reminder that training in the law ought not to be undervalued.

I grew up in a family of lawyers & I think many lawyers are sort of political jockeys that navigate the beast (the U.S. legal system). Grassroots changes in our culture - which I hope this crisis spurs - less apathy (quickly turns into sociopathy), more patriotism is needed.
