A $200,000 bonus to Supreme Court law clerks for signing on with a law firm?

No. Don't be silly! That was last year's rate.

Oddest -- and saddest -- reason for paying so much, from the managing partner at Sidley Austin, Carter Phillips: "they're used to working hard. They can't get through their clerkships without putting in significant hours, so you know they can put in 2,200 hours at a firm."

Why not just buy two lawyers?
