i'm moving this weekend, so won't be around much--but powerclown's right in that entering the guild of lawyers is the easiest way to get into the political class---but why should it be the case that this guild monopolizes governance? eve read plato's "the statesman" or "the laws"--especially the latter, which is about a society run by secret committee...it's an authoritarian situation---a class monopoly on power is a problem for a democratic society, even one that is democracy-lite as the american is.
i have more to say, and i'll try to wedge it between putting stuff in boxes.
