Brookings Institution Recommends a Law PhD Program

The Brookings Institution recently published a paper that recommends law schools start a law PhD program. They say that having law PhDs would help find inefficiencies in our legal structure.

What?

Here's an idea. Stop lobbyists from scribbling in the law books faster than lawyers can interpret the mess.

Amazing.

I thought we already had Juris Doctors.

We do. But apparently if we call them PhDs things will be different.

Sounds like the way my employer does things in management. Got a problem in say...purchasing? Okay, take the Purchasing Manager and create a new position for him called "Director of Purchasing". Then, promote his former assistant to Purchasing Manager and give them each a raise. Hire a new Assistant Purchasing Manager to replace the old one. Then, when you realize, a year later, that your salary costs have increased dramatically in purchasing and this assitant you hired does absolutely nothing----Pin all of the blame on her and fire her.

There, problem solved!

Oh, and DAMN UNION! (We have no union.)

Regards,
Dave
