mainstream media providing you information you are a diminishing breed.
Unlike you that do depend and as a result you use hyperbole, hysteria make the rare, exception events the RULE because the media ONLY knows how to exaggerate blow out of proportion and defend Democrats while writing negatives about GOP... here is a poll...
Journalists Getting Less Respect, Especially Among Women
The decline in public views about journalists contribution to society since 2009 is more pronounced among women than men.
Roughly three-in-ten women (29%) say journalists contribute a lot to societys well-being, down 17 percentage points from 46% in 2009.
Mens views on this are about the same today as they were in 2009.
Lawyers are at the bottom with 18% of surveyed saying they contributed to society.
Public Esteem for Military Still High - Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life
Now I wonder how many of those 18% that say lawyers DO contribute know this number:
$850 billion a year.
This is what physicians (occupations the surveyed people say have 66% contribution to society ) say is caused by fear they are going to be sued by lawyers!
Here is what physicians say about this wasteful duplicate spending:
So any lawyers on this forum care to defend the $850 billion a year that the people that create the claims that INSURANCE companies and PAYERS pay out this $850 billion called "defensive Medicine"?
Physicians estimate the cost of defensive medicine in US at $650 to $850 billion per year. This is 26% to 34% of all US healthcare costs.
So do you think these people surveyed would have an even lower opinion of lawyers after READING THE ABOVE FACT?
And this is one of the reason's Obamacare WON"T work is because Obama/Congress received over $300 million from lawyers!
