Well, one of my best friends is in a pre-law program and I have very much seen the good that lawyers do, though I suppose that it would depend on the type of law as far as stereotyping goes because there are a few corporate types that I know OF who have created havoc in their wake.
That said, I distrust the medical profession a great deal more, despite two of my friends in a medical program. I have been exposed to too many tests that were painful and expensive to not look at it from a lens of skepticism.
