I think that most slashdotters and slashsons are concerned with the motivation of the lawyers. Since many US Citizens feel disenfranchised from both Gov't and the legal system, they feel more inclined to a lack of respect for the laws churned out by said system. Many folks see money as the over-arching force that motivates the lawyers and the CEOs of the companies that employ their services. Since the majority of slashdotters are not multimillionaires, they think they have an unclouded view of the situation that the $-eyed lawyers could not possibly hope to share. A good follow-up question would be: What is the primary motivation of lawyers today? Equal and fair treatment for all citizens? The morals and the ethics have been completely separated seemingly, is this the best(or only) way to run a legal system? Ah well...too much philosophizing...I yield. Handcrafted Sig: I'd rather search for a needle in a haystack than a piece of hay in a needlestack!
