And if the CEOs & CFOs & COOs & CTOs didn't have lawyers, they'd have their secretaries write laws (it's mostly the "administrative assistants" that do all the work anyway, the attorneys review it, mark it up and hand it back to be "corrected" before they sign it and take the credit).

There are good lawyers and bad lawyers, just like any other kind of whore.

Yes, good lawyers are those who never advocated a "law" and try to defend people from the "laws" that already exist. But those who write "laws" (or take a "law" someone else has written and "review it, mark it up and hand it back") are bad guys.
