We have more lawyers per captia and more lawyers total than any other nation in the world. We have more lawyers than we have firefighters, police, doctors, or military. 2/3 of the legislative branch are lawyers, which pretty much sums it up.

I strongly suspect if you charted health care costs vs the population of lawyers in the United States that you would see an interesting correlation. People used to be able to pay cash for health care because it didn't have the massive burden of administrative overhead and malpractice insurance. Health care tort reform would make many of today's issues go away except for one minor thing - this country is run by lawyers. Fox in the henhouse........
