- <p> The savings-and-loan disaster may be a burden for taxpayers,
- but it's a boon for lawyers. The federal agency created to
- handle the sale of insolvent thrifts has set an annual budget
- for legal fees of $130 million. That's quadruple the cumulative
- $33 million it has spent on lawyers since its inception last
- year.
