. Rather than use logical arguments to explain why global labor wage
arbitrage is not a threat and to refute Paul Craig Roberts's analysis of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics stats, you had to resort to attacking me personally.
Couldn't you at least put up some stats showing that the employment market is
healthy? (Note that the unemployment numbers are politically manipulated and
not indicative of quality of employment, do please don't try to use those
purposely misleading stats.)

For the record, I've never operated nor tried to operate a solo practice.
Rather, I am earning a middle class income out-of-field, living frugally, paying
off my debts, and building a solo practice warchest. When the time comes I will
obtain a license in a state with a relatively favorable attorney-to-population
ratio and per capita income earned-per-attorney ratio and give it a go. I
believe in my abilities.
