7. Woo Hoo! I'd LOVE to beat a few Lawyers once in awhile! They could use it.

And I say that with apologies to any lawyers on here who are decent, but you have to know you are few and far between. Most lawyers are all about money and nothing about helping society or their fellow human being.

Lawyers control, game, and make fortunes off our court system that is paid for by the public and is supposed to provide "Justice For All." Well, guess what -- the reality is "justice for those who can afford a smarmy lawyer!" Try navigating even the most simple court procedure on your own as a citizen and see how far you get.

I know a lady who is being sued for everything she owns and is facing court today unrepresented because she doesn't have a $3000 to $10,000 retainer to hand some lawyer (but she isn't "poor enough" and/or her problems simple enough to qualify for the magnanimous "legal aid" in her county.) What do you want to bet she loses?

Shakespeare ROCKS!

PS -- Don't give me that crap about lawyers have to charge $3-10 K because they have to pay their bills. Bull. Teachers, doctors, clergy, police, plumbers, and others -- all these have bills too, but their services are available to the middle class. (well, maybe less and less when it comes to doctors ;-) )
