Comment on Letter I Used To Get Back 100% Of My Security Deposit From A Hostile Landlord

9 out of 10 lawsuits in the world are now filed in the United States, which is also home to over 80% of the world’s lawyers

The source the article cites for this says the US has 1.2 million lawyers, so they are claiming the world has 1.5 million lawyers, and that there are only 300k lawyers outside the US. This is wrong:

   Germany: 139k lawyers [1]
   France:   46k [1]
   Greece:   36k [1]
   Italy:   121k [1]
   Spain:   114k [1]
   UK:      151k [1]
   Turkey:   55k [1]
   Brazil:  622k [2]
   Mexico:  215k [3]
   China:   200k [4]
   India:  1300k [5]
