I think if the standards were a lot higher there would be less unethical practicing lawyers. Unfortunately, the law is a big business and most politicians making the laws that regulate them come from that field, so no changes are ever going to be made. From the prosecution side, I wish the government would decriminalize drug laws so they can concentrate their resources at the most serious crimes. Then again, prisoners are a big business in this country so I don't think these changes would ever happen. Not financially viable.
