      You can not tell me, when most politicians are lawyers, when those politicians select their oversight among other lawyers, when both JDs and legal counsel are deliberately designed to be inaccessible to all but the very privileged, that the profession of law is not inherently bad

      Well, the justification for having lawyers is to defend yourself against other people's lawyers, and if the system didn't exist and we had to defend ourselves from each other personally it'd be even more unequal It's like soldiers

      in all sincerity we could probably pass a lawyer control regulation to reduce their ubiquity in certain corporate spaces and cut down a bit on superfluous litigation

      Honestly we already have the rules, we just don’t enforce them. On paper, reading the codes of legal ethics, you’d expect the Barr DOJ to be inconceivable because everyone involved would have lost their licenses months ago.

      which comes back to "the prerequisite for a functional society built off law is that this degree of fuckery is punished savagely"

      It's worth noting, anyway, just looking at how much people hate lawyers and Shakespeare having the "First thing let's kill all the lawyers" quote etc, that de Tocqueville noticed the litigiousness of American society very early on and noted it as a positive thing

      That America was a society with a surprising number of lawyers setting up shop on every street corner in every small town and ordinary Americans were surprisingly interested in learning about the law, talking about "their rights", threatening to sue, etc

      He argued it was a result of America being a society where people felt themselves to be each other's equals to a far greater degree than Europe of the time, where people had a much stronger sense that the law was whatever your betters demanded of you and it was useless to fight

      And of course our present situation represents a significant degeneration towards the latter, which Republicans have spent decades building.

      Yeah you'll notice that all the shit talking about wasteful litigation and as ambulance chasing scumbag trial lawyers led directly to the movement of corporations putting mandatory arbitration clauses in everyone's contracts

      So we can avoid the immense waste of time and taxpayer money involved in having a trial to enrich those parasitic lawyers and instead have a friendly, informal, simple and easy process where a regular guy comes in, listens to both sides and rules in favor of your boss
