Lifestyle Of Intellectual Property Attorney?


I am 32 and going to have a family soon. I have a computer science degree and know that IP law is a very rewarding field. At least, in a financial sense. However, I do love to spend time with my family and based on the research I performed in the past few weeks, I am getting mixed answers about the lifestyle of an IP attorney. Some people say they work crazy hours for several years and some claim IP lawyers do just 1,600 billable hours fresh off school since it’s a “niche” area of law. I personally doubt 1,600 hours is realistic but then again, who am I to say anything 🙂
If you are an IP attorney, either in prosecution or litigation, can you share how your lifestyle is like after you obtained your J.D.? If I do go to law school now, I won’t be done until I am 35 or 36 and with an average learning curve of 5 – 7 years, I don’t know if such path is a good choice. If anyone knows of a friend, family member, or spouse who is an IP attorney, any insight is also greatly appreciated. I went to a good school with a strong computer science program and graduated top 2% of my class. I just don’t know if I should further my career with a law degree practicing patent law. Is the lifestyle worth it.

What Exactly Are The Pros And Cons Of Having Illegals In This Country And What Is A Solution To The Problem?


So, in most places that I read about the escalating problem of illegal immigrants in our country (I’m aware it’s been like this for quite a long time and it’s not a recent thing), I really don’t know what to believe since a lot of people affiliated with the both the Democrat and Republican parties both seem intent on spreading as much misinformation as possible about how illegals really affect our country. What I want to find out is what are the actual pros and cons of allowing them to continue to stay here. For me personally, it doesn’t make sense to let all the needy coming in from all these different countries sneak in and we get to take care of them when our own people and economy need to be taken care of. Also, it just seems like a slap in the face to the immigrants who persevere and come in legally and when illegals put their personal (sometimes incredibly saddening) situations above our own system and laws, it just diminishes the value of those laws we put in place and makes it seem like big joke that we even have them in the first place.
Despite how it affects me emotionally, I appreciate the truth and facts a lot more so I can think rationally about it. So, what are the real pros and cons of the current presence of illegals in our country? How does it benefit the Democratic and Republican parties? How does it benefit the American people as a whole? As for a solution, I’m not really sure what will eventually happen, but it needs to happen fast. The situation is getting way out of control all the while Congress bickers and points the finger of blame at each other and neglecting to just sit down with each other and form a solution that every one can agree and compromise on. What would be your solution to the immigration problem?
P.S. If it means anything, you could consider me an independent (though I don’t really care for labels much). Also, if you’d be so kind as to provide sources for any claims you make, that would be much appreciated.

Am I A Democrat Or Republican?


I’ve been reading into American politics lately, and although I am not an American citizen, I find it interesting to get a sense of what America and its citizens are going through right now (politically, economically, etc.).
Anyway, I keep reading about both political parties, and I am having a hard time classifying myself with a party.
I am usually on the fence on most matters, because I believe that in todays world, it is every man for himself. However, I do value traditiod and family. I also believe strongly in educating one self and establishing a good career.
I like the idea of smaller governments because I have seen many low-income people abuse and take advantage of government social programs (for example, welfare). I think governments should not intervene ALOT in people’s lives, but do so only when necessary. I believe that people’s success/failure depends ENTIRELY on their actions. For instance, if you are in need of some cash, then get a job and work hard…and move up the corporate ladder.
I am mostly neutral on controvesial issues. I am pro-abortion simply because I think we have a choice in deciding whether to bring a life into this world or not (please dont bother arguing with me about this, I dont have time to explain my beliefs over the internet to you). I believe in having a strong military/national defence, but I also think that money needs to be invested in the infrastructure of a country in order to improve quality of life.
I support the advancement of medical research. I don’t have anything against homosexuals.
I am not insanely religious, but I do remember my religious roots and ties (I give my family more value than my religion). I am a strong believer of karma and I live by the moto ‘live and let live”, therefore I think everyone should mind their own business, and stop imposing their beliefs on others (I am looking at you christians who keep knocking on my door asking me to consider christianity as my religion lol–no offence but it gets annoying. please stop).
I believe everything should be done in moderation. I don’t like extremes.
…okay so that was my little rant. Now, what political category should I affiliate myself with?

Is This The Biggest Issue In American Politics?


Not just the biggest issue but the biggest UNITING issue.
Expand the house of representatives. Can the peoples’ house really represent the people with 700,000 constituents to every one representative? Wouldn’t we all be better represented with more representatives? I am not a spammer or affiliated with this website but i am really excited about what they are advocating at http://thirty-thousand.org/. I don’t know what ideology this comes from but I really don’t care either. I think this is truly something everyone can get behind. In my opinion, this may even make it harder for huge special interests to control our legislature which really is what our biggest hurdle to common sense solutions is. Do you think this is a good idea? Why or why not?
