The Wealth Defense Industry (also known as Corporate Wealth Defence) is described as "an army of lawyers, consultants, accountants, and more who get paid millions to help their clients hide trillions" - and is generally thought of as a vanguard of economic and legal actors involved in sustaining and hiding activities which hoard wealth from a wider (poorer) community, be it a nation, area or government. This can be done legally. Chuck Collins, heir to the Oscar Mayer fortune has somewhat confirmed the existence of The Wealth Defense industry and advocates against them on moral and emotional grounds. The language describing the phenomena originates within the political and behavioral sciences.
