Excellent Summary of US/China Relations

Ambrose Evans Pritchard on US-China relations...  as usual the comments are very good... showing both sides of the argument.  The lawyers who run this country have no idea who they are up against.  Immanual Kant was an observer of the USA revolution and the formation of our government.  Kant pointed out that it would be a mistake to allow members of one branch of government to serve in another, in particular of course, lawyers, who are officers of the court, the judiciary, serving in the legislature or the executive branch. It would be a good improvement to outlaw this conflict of interest.  Can we not trace most of USA crimes and problems back to lawyers serving in the executive or legislative branch?

In Shakespeare's Henry the VI, it is a villain who says "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."  Although we can have any of many legal systems, they all seem to yield pretty much the same results, one can make things worse by allowing a conflict of interest.  Get rid of the conflict of interest, get rid of the abuses, and people will not be so anti-lawyer.
