Shut Up and Make Your Money

It's difficult to comprehend the chutzpah of young lawyers, emboldened by their exponential, skyward salaries, the flaming sword of justice at their sides, all of sudden they start demanding things like making stupid-money is some sort of democracy.

Thanks, Kyle McEntee, you ungrateful bastard.

That report, titled A Way Forward: Transparency in 2018, calls for the ABA to immediately add two young lawyers to the legal education council and eventually designate two of the 15 at-large council positions for young lawyers.
...
“The deans and faculty on the Council know the cost of today’s tuition only in the sense that they can recite the price,” the report reads. “They do not understand the life impact of tuition prices of $40,000, $50,000, or even more than $60,00[0] per year have on decision making.”

It's minimal.  When you make $180,000/year, $50k in debt is a sneeze on the morning crapper.  It doesn't matter if your old or young or from the dark side of Uranus. Money's money.

And what of young lawyers wanting to join forces with the ABA?  Is that not a party admission that the ABA is looking out for the best interests of all lawyers young and old?

Beyond the addition of two young lawyers to the council, providing more data on law student borrowing, diversity, and bar pass rates will help legal educators better understand the larger trends, McEntee said.

We know the larger trends.  We make lots of money.  You human communion wafers make slightly less money.  Clients win, law firms win, justice wins, etc.  No one loses in this scenario.

So stop complaining.  Make your money, enjoy the whirlpool in the belly, and pay the generosity forward to the next morsels of food sliding down the tube of digestive love.
