But no.  The legaleses merchants have nuanced and vaunted their profession to the such lofty high standards we all witness, while insistently prodding us into such that one just cannot fathom being without them as part and parcel of every aspect of our life's.

The judiciary of the United States is the subtle corps of sappers and miners constantly working under ground to undermine the foundations of our confederated fabric. They are construing our constitution from a co-ordination of a general and special government to a general and supreme one alone. This will lay all things at their feet, and they are too well versed in English law to forget the maxim, "boni judicis est ampliare juris-dictionem."  - Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Ritchie Monticello, December 25, 1820

We were all warned.

Perhaps, my desired 10-year moratorium on legalese merchant degrees is not long enough to cull the bases of what ills our Great Nation.
