It will do nothing of the sort. People with no bar exam will not get jobs at reputable firms. People who do not possess the capability to pass the bar exam will not have the chops necessary to earn a decent living.
Yep, my mom's BFF's kids have fancy law degrees but only middling jobs. Surgeons, MDs, dentists, biotech scientists, data scientists, and software engineers make a lot more.
chiming in only to add that judges are not elected in every jurisdiction. in many, they are appointed by the executive and approved by the legislature.
