Not to add any fuel to the fire, but...
Doug,
If you did indeed attend law school, then either it must have been pretty bad, you must have been a poor student, or a combination thereof. You lack the ability to write even cohesive and sensical sentences, let alone arguments. It does not surprise me from what I've seen that you are working for a shady institution like National "Law".
Second, you ignore the fact that practicing law is not a RIGHT. It takes much studying and effort to break into the practice of law, and certain skills/abilities are needed. Those who do not possess the basic abilities or motivation to work, are simply not fit to become attorneys. Period. Perhaps law school is a bit too "guarded" financially, however academic "guards" are necessary to ensure that only those who are fit to practice law are allowed to do so (or even learn how to do so).
In conclusion, perhaps you should peddle your (relatively) useless wares elsewhere. You won't find much sympathy here.
