I wondered how you guys though about lawyers. I'm not trying to offend anyone, but I find that the whole idea of lawyers is bad. Chances are if you have a better lawyer, you have a much better chance of winning, even if you are in the wrong. For example, if you are a criminal, you murder someone, your obviously guilty, but if you have the best lawyer, he/she could twist everything and get you out of it. What do you guys think?

Sure, and not only that, but the current justice system is largely "pay to win"; examples are easy to find, but I'm reminded of the "affluenza case" that hit the news some months ago: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/do-you-have-affluenza-453647. But in the end, you still need to either have someone/a group of people represent you, or a massive restructuring of the entire system, so that representation becomes unnecessary. So, what would you propose as a viable alternative?
