This is disgusting, but unfortunately common:

This "something is wrong - let's blame a lawyer" attitude has to go. Does anyone with this grievance mentality ever stop to think how few attorneys are actually involved in the kind of litigation that makes them so hot under the collar? A large "full-service" law firm is not composed strictly of litigators but also includes specialists in tax, corporate law, bankruptcy, wills and estates, intellectual property, energy law, securities, labor & employment, banking regulation, insurance law, international trade, health care, environmental, private equity, construction and real estate - the list goes on, With the exception of bankruptcy lawyers, none of the aforementioned specialists goes to court frequently if at all.
The vast majority of attorneys spend their time assisting business in its day to day operations; the financial markets and just about everything else would grind to a halt pretty quickly if it weren't for these attorneys. Insulting hardworking people like this only adds to the divisiveness already rife in our political culture, and it needs to stop.
