   You'd prefer lawyers who -don't- fight for their clients?   
      
   I think the lawyers in the former Soviet Union did that sort of thing.   
   All in all, it didn't seem a good system.

   There's no money to keep folks who drive with suspended licenses in   
   jail. Certainly not for any significant amount of time.   
      
   You'll no doubt be circulating the petition to increase your taxes so   
   that such folks might indeed be locked up?
