Jay Allen: corrupt legal systems have lawyers too. arguably people have greater need of them when the legal system is essentially arbitrary: you need someone who already understands the arbitrators, has a good relationship with them, and knows what will get them to rule in your favor.

Sorry to all my lawyer friends who spent a bunch of time learning how law works in the US. I had friends who were Flash developers and things turned out alright for them after they pivoted to C# or whatever. Hopefully there's an equivalent for our national legal system

Hmm my understanding of the consequence of the Chevron decision lead me to believe lawyers will have quite a lot of work now (though they may not enjoy it)

It's rather difficult to counsel your clients when the law doesn't matter, only the opinion of 5 or more corrupt assholes.
