	I was thinking the same thing today when I saw a sign that said "Attourneys - Auto injury, work injury." It's as though people are so bent on blaming their problems on someone else that they set up a lawyer shop for it.

It is a bit pathetic if you really think about it. They're doing it for two possible reasons. 1. The ones saying they will give you money for getting people to buy their stuff are trying to get through all the economic problems. It does go too far after awhile. 2. The people trying to give you money for "treatment problems" are trying to make people look bad and are trying to make them look better. Sepeaking of those commercials, one came on not too long ago. It gets annoying after seeing them every other commercial break. ____________________

	This is nothing new...by a longshot. It's plagued more on the radio than on the TV, really...and most of it is medical. They do it because it's a way for the attornies to get money out of winning your claim. Obviously, it's a way of selling service and TV and Radio are great advertising...so why not? ____________________

	Jul Mosts 2009 Yeah, ambulance chasers have been around for a while ("Lionel Hutz, Attorney-At-Law! Broken neck? GREAT!"), they just seem to be in higher demand now thanks to our overly litigious society. You so much as breathe wrong on some people, and next thing you know they've got Mr. Goldwater on speed dial... ____________________
