The System
Yes, your work and your life are secondary to - Your Civic Duty - at about $8.00 PER DAY while the Lawyers & Judges are making HUNDREDS of DOLLARS PER HOUR!  Yes, a murderer, a terrorist and a pedophile can all walk free on a  ' tehnicality ' or if they can afford  the ' best ' attorney.  And most doctors and companies settle out of court when threatened with a lawsuit because of the costs involved.  It is indeed the " best system in the world " for the lawyers and the judges.  In most of the civilized countries, the legal system is different in one very important way; if you sue someone and lose, YOU PAY.  In other words, most of the ridiculous and extortionary lawsuits are eliminated.
