Corky, I’m a lawyer currently working outside the profession while I try to find a law job. Send me an e-mail and I’ll tell you where to send the checks so I can stop looking.

Corky Boyd,

Sounds great, except for one thing: there is a limited and known amount of land. The number of lawyers keeps increasing, and would increase even more undersuch a plan.

First, we need to imply limit how many lawyers are minted each year (preferably none for about a decade).

But really, fix the system that draws the blood-suckers, I mean lawyers (sorry to insult you, blood suckers), and you have a better solution that also costs less.

I think we should take a page from our Federal agricultural policy. There we paid farmers to take land out of production.

Likewise, we should pay lawyers not to practice. Would solve a lot of the country’s problems.

Wil we not need to increase taxes for support of the increase of judges to provide cases for lawyers? I also believe that used cars salesmen should be subsidized so the can be on economic par with lawyers. Social par being already reached.
