Then we should look at nationalizing ALL of them, not just law.
Maybe Russia had it right?
Maybe "we" are better at determining a person's contribution to Society rather than allowing them to choose their own career?
No, Mini. But we do not graduate 500,000 people a year with sparkling new degrees in buggy whip manufacturing and $100,000 debt load because the market has no demand for their new skills.
Here's a great discussion of how we got into this mess, how bad it is, and what must be done to fix it (close many law schools)......

When there are too many lawyers, the schools will close themselves.
Evidently, we don't have enough yet.
Universities do not decide what their schools' capacities will be based on the job market for graduates; they do on the students' demand for a curriculum. That's just the way they roll.
