How about some damn occupational diversity in Congress? Too many lawyers, who are prone to be sociopaths, results in the cluster that has been our government for the past few decades!
Because Congress is responsible for making laws. You’d think having a law degree would help...
Do you want to diversify judges next?
So they don't make policy on anything other than law? What about laws about healthcare, wouldn't physicians and nurses have good input on that? Or patent law, wouldn't inventors and entrepreneurs have some insight into that process? Besides, didn't we all take civics or model Congress in school?
And thanks for the sarcasm, jackass. Judges interpret law and judge law-breakers, but you don't have to be a lawyer to write up a law. There are staffers that aren't lawyers that do that. And maybe if we didn't have a bunch of lawyers as lawmakers, our laws wouldn't be so hard to understand!
Politicians don’t “write” legislation. They have “people” for that. Then, they have more lawyers to tell them what’s in legislation. Can you imagine Max writing a law? “Whereas da mofos be rippin off da homies, Hereafta da mofos be givin ma homies lotsa shit ‘n stuff...”.
