Is it plagerism?

Is it still plagiarism if you pay someone else to create and essay that hasn't been created yet? The answer is YES. Not only is academically wrong and cheating but it is also morally wrong. Even though it didn't come from Google or another essay  site, its still someone else s work and not yours, therefore it is in fact plagiarism and is still a "crime" Pesonally, I wont resort to having another person write my essay, im too opinionated to not want to write my own essays. Also I would feel very dishonest and guilty and would probably turn myself in because I would not feel I got the grade I deserved.
