You do know, don't you Tom, that the lawyers can't sue these companies on their own? They have to have clients on whose behalf they are suing.

If the clients weren't there, the lawyers couldn't sue.

Seriously. I don't understand the point of blaming lawyers, as if they file stupid lawsuits on their own.

Exactly, and I've never quite understood why lawyers get so much of the blame here.

Hm, wonder if there were no lawyers, would there be law suits?

Are not lawyers the majority of Legislators?

Maybe they get into Politics as they are not worth a darn as lawyers?

Join ACLU and change the world for the ?????ment?

Oh, never mind, they want to make the life for us better.

God are we having fun yet.

Just some S & G to go along with the joke on the first post that some get noses out of joint!

WTF, does that answer your question?

For someone who gets so upset when people criticize your profession, you have a good time criticizing other people's professions.
