It's no big secret, but lawyers' jobs in the government seem to be under scanner currently by David Kotz, the inspector general of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Apparently, Kotz has stumbled upon the big secret known to the lawyers' employment market for centuries: people in government lawyers' jobs leave to join private practice and consequently difficulties arise in impartial execution of due processes of law. Kotz is reported to have brought the matter to the notice of Sen. Charles Grassley, who is on the Senate Finance Committee.
