The leftists claim to be for equality and fairness. How is it fair for a rich person or company to buy favors in Washington DC? How can the poor—the very people the left claims to love—compete against a system where $ makes right? If you can’t afford to carve out your own faction, your opponents will use government like a bludgeon against you!
BTW, corruption in government is a given. The way to limit its scope is to limit government itself. The founders understood this and gave us a system designed to keep the politicians in check, but that was a long, long time ago.
Hell, the “poor” are FORCED to pay Hillary the same amount as the rich, illegal overseas oil countries are paying!
While in the WHite House, the Indian tribes were forced to pay $100,000.00 to the (private) Clinton Library fund just to get a meeting with Clinton about their complaints about the Bureau of Indian Affairs!
