Great point
Legislatures everywhere are stuffed with attorneys. Since most are ‘part time’ legislators and operate full time law practices.....any common sense legislation of any kind (ex; consumer, dui, criminal sentencing etc)....that competes with their ability to make money, will die in committee.

(Apologies in advance to any that deem the above political!)
