Lawyers, Politics and Business


           
Too many of our law makers in Washington and in state houses, are lawyers. It’s no small wonder; we have too many lawyers graduating college. They need something to do other than seek litigation briefs.
           
It helps explain why we have too little doctors, scientists and mathematicians, when you cannot cope with science or math, it’s far easier to become a lawyer. Years ago, you could become a lawyer without going to college. You took the bar exam after clerking in a law office.
                       
I believe too many lawyers in government have become a major problem. We need representatives who actually represent the people. They ought to come from different job experiences. Furthermore, politicking should not be a permanent career.
                       
I also strongly feel that we need small business men and women in Congress and in state houses. It would change the legislative outlook about taxes, business and everyday problems of the middle class as well as poor.(See the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole tweets.)
