New York State Attorney Workforce Infestation Rate 
As we speak (ca. March 2012) there are approximately 158,000 licensed attorneys in New York. By comparison, there are only about 67,000 physicians practicing in New York. Put simply, there are at least 90,000 more lawyers than doctors.
The infestation of lawyers in New York reminds one of the damage New Yorkers suffered and continue to suffer from the overpopulation of rats in New York’s five boroughs. I'm thinking that most New Yorkers would prefer the overpopulation of rats verses attorneys, right?
New Yorkers continue to suffer from an out of control birthrate among attorneys, which is among the highest in the developed world. Clearly, a reliable birth control device needs to be implemented to prevent unnecessary future births.
Let’s compare New York’s attorney workforce infestation rate verses several other states as set forth in the textbox below. FYI: workforce population = Private non-farm employment per the U.S. Census Bureau.
I’m sure the rat associations, I’m sorry I mean lawyer’s associations will claim that there’s more lawyers in New York because of Wall Street. However, this can’t possibly explain that there are 2 ½ times more of them in New York then the six East Coast states listed above.
