RE: Are lawyers actually a good choice when electing people to political offices?
Good article, thanks for sharing. Lawyers might, just might, know the law and more importantly its lingo and, therefore, might just want to do what's right, but do they??? Using the language doesn't necessarily bring one to do the right thing... Namaste :)
Yes, this is why I think as advisors they are useful. Their training specifically teaches them how to represent their clients and sway the Jury (aka the people). This does not mean their clients are ethical or good people.
Putting them into leadership positions, and where they can make more LAWS which are in their lingo seems like a bit of a conflict of interest. Laws are not necessarily in legal style language because they have to be that way. Though I've read some good articles on Steemit before about trying to read that stuff.
