    Just last Spring, he lent me his copy of "What Color is Your Parachute" and invited me into his office to discuss two job offers I was contemplating. He did all this after he passe…

    I'm calling bullshit. Post a source for your examples. Also, the ABA and the AMA agree unions for lawyers and doctors. They have a government sanctioned monopoly on top level legal…
