are you really saying we must dispose of our time honoured
tradition of "the best justice money can buy..." ??? say it is not
so; where would our legal system be without body trading?
as for the communist/socialist ideal of work/need/want where want
is suppressed --it does not work; never has, never will. even the
religious orders have not made it work over time (other than by
fear).

this is already a factor in the need to pay an attorney his
ridiculous fees. being required to post a plaintiff's bond does
nothing to equalize the rights of the have nots --most of whom seem
to have unlimited resources from the dogooders anyway.
Get real, Jim. it may not be the best system, but other than
enforcing the principles on which it is founded, and stripping
attorney privileges to a percentage of the take, the system works
quite well; corruption on the bench is whose fault? ours, just
like the excesses in Washington are our fault.
it is _our_ failure to insist on clean, representative government
and judiciary. and to convert to a pooled system for equality is
not going to stop graft -it is built in to human greed.
stop apathy on _our_ part, and we will stop graft.
