I am not always against lawyers either. I do agree that anything can be abused in any system.
Give anything big money, be it religion or a political party or a business, such as law firms, and anything can go off the rails.
Lawyers are not always bad. They have argued cases in front of courts that get the innocent free, or argue even to the tops of the Supreme Court that hold up Roe V Wade.
Lawyers are not by themselves bad, monopolies of power are. People forget that private vs public is the wrong argument. Absolute power either way is.
