illegal profession
The correct term for the profession usually euphemized as the legal profession. Applies to attorneys, lawyers, solicitors, counselors, barristers, or what ever other euphemism they come up with for their profession.
The euphemism legal profession is used by members of the illegal profession to distract the public from the conflict of interest that is inherent to their profession due to the fact that most legislators either have already been, or eventually will become, attorneys.
Members of the illegal profession wouldn't need to distract us if they didn't get paid a week's wage for an hour's work.
