Due to health care inequalities people are talking about single payer where the government is the only payer.

However, an even bigger problem is legal inequalities. Rich people can afford top legal representation and poor people cannot. We should instead have single payer legal representation. Lawyers are required to charge a standard fee and are paid by the government for their work. They are not allowed to accept payments in addition to the standard government payment or to take contingency fees.

Doing this would ensure that the poor in America are not disadvantaged due to the rich having better lawyers.
