    You’re right. Most of them are thinking that this is somehow a real way to get away with not paying bills. Legal loopholes they think that corporate lawyers somehow don’t know about.

    They’ve definitely been conned and/or radicalized but even the most gullible among them think this is some convoluted scheme to get out of taxes and legal obligations. They are one and all scammers.

      Oh, they think lawyers know about the loopholes, it’s actually a part of their brainwashing. They believe the entire legal profession is a giant conspiracy, that we’re taught how to get away with not paying for stuff in law school, and that we intentionally deceive the public so that they don’t find out how corrupt we are.

      Cuz, y’know, it’s super easy to keep a conspiracy going in ~200 law schools, each of which admits hundreds of students at a time, and nobody ever drops out and feels spiteful enough to leak the “truth.” Yup.

        All the lawyers I know are bleeding hearts that feel horribly guilty for being self made and successful. They love statism, paying taxes and participating in the expansion of powers of the US federal government. They must have all missed that early morning class. They will be devastated to know that their licenses arw invalid. I can’t wait to call them one by one.
