I wonder how many lawyers have a true grasp on law in general. It’s like today’s healthcare workers. Twenty years ago I’d go to a doctor and I’d learn something from that doctor. That doesn’t happen now. Too many providers did the bulk of their education online and it shows.
TBH it's the way they teach them. There's almost no actual applied learning going on in college with regards to the medical stuff. The way the classes are structured is like your entire grade is based on maybe 3 to 6 tests throughout the semester. When you study like that just for the next test that's coming up, you tend to forget like 60 to 70% of the stuff that you studied like two days after the test is over. Most of their learning is done on the fucking job and they're starting out usually with close to a million dollars worth of student loan debt, which essentially makes them slaves of the system because if they don't make the exorbitant payments on it they lose their license and they still have to keep the fucking debt because they can't discharge it with bankruptcy. So that $500,000 a year ends up being a lot less actual take-home money when you account for like the 40% or some ridiculous amount that the government takes on top of the student loan payments. I haven't done the actual math on it so I can't give you 100% accurate figures but they have to pay a lot after all of that schooling, and after inflation a lot of doctors can end up being in roughly the same boat as you or I with regards to their economic status.

All of this crap is by design. Soon, though, the veil will be lifted. I can’t wait!
