>Thus my earlier statement that we have too many laws and excessively >complex laws. That comes from have too many politicians, and too much >government. OK, then why do we have so many more lawyers than much more socialistic countries that have a far more complex history of laws than the US? There is a model that fits all these data. The US is the most individualistic of all the developed countries. If you traveled or talked to folks from Europe, you would know that. We have far more litigation than any of those countries. Instead of control by governmental bureaucrats, we have a version of the old gunfight....only in the courts. See, if X is the problem, one would think that reducing X would decrease the problem. Yet, the developed country that values and promotes individualism the most has the most lawyers.
