You are absolutely correct: doctor and lawyers do pro bono work and  
there is absolutely no shame in it. In such cases they serve people  
who cannot afford their services, just like disaster victims. But  
generally speaking it includes destitute people. The US government (or  
the Russian government) hardly belong to the destitute group.
