They recently had a questionnaire on Yahoo, I think, about the most trusted and admired occupations. The Armed Forces came in #1 and lawyers came in last. Not sure if either one of them deserve their ranking. Had I gone on to college, a law degree is what I would have been chasing. I don't find attorneys any more despicable than some of the laws that are on the books in many states. Get rid of some of these ridiculous laws and the unscrupulous lawyers would disappear with them.
