No but lets say you have a disease. . . . say testicular cancer. Now There are all types of men out there. Girly men, manly men, of all races creeds and colors. Now if you put two people in a room and say one of them as testiculr cancer and one is a woman and one is a man then guess what. . . . . Its the same with doctors, lawyers, politicians, etc. If you put a doctor, a lawyer, and a politiciant in a room together with a man working his arse off to make a living at two jobs and an old fashioned farmer and tell me pick out the three shysters. . . . . Well you just play the percentage at that point. . . .
Now I am not saying you are a shyster fabs, everything I know about you and all the times we have talked online I really think you are an honest man, however you being an honest man has not a thing in the world with you being a lawyer. Most lawyers I have met were crooks before they were lawyers and crooks after they were lawyers (most of them became politicians, kinda the upgrade to your basic shyster). I know two good ones besides yourself amongst a sea of bad ones. I don't doubt you know other good honest lawyers, after all you deal with them far more than most of us do, and you have enough sense to know who is going to stab you in the back in your own industry, but I bet you could close your eyes and type a roladex full of bad ones too if you had a mind too.
What is being said is that there are crooks in every part of society, BUT some jobs just attract more crooks and shysters than others. Your dumb crook is going to be a buglar, a thief, etc. Your smart crook is going to be drawn to the legal theft involved in the law and politics. After all there is no better way to pick a mans pocket than to get him to put you into it, thats more than half the job done.
I am a Tech Specialist by trade. Kinda a cross between a refrigerator repairman, a computer hacker, and a jack-of-all-trades. Haven't found anything yet I couldn't fix given time, money, and inclination. But guess what. Most Tech Specialists I know are just plain old hacks and crooks who want to get at peoples money for doing a half-arsed job of repairing their systems, or setting them up. Sure I know a few other good ones. But I know FAR more bad ones.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
