It shouldn't ... as we discussed on Day 7, the buying and selling of influence wouldn't be a problem if the government were made to stick to its constitutional duty of protecting citizens' rights. If the government has no power to redistribute income or to impose regulations on us etc., then there is nothing a politician can sell to anyone.
As soon as the government is allowed to redistribute income, people will begin to buy their share of redistributed income from politicians. As sooon as the government is allowed to regulate private industry, compaines will be bidding to get the regulations they like passed. And as soon as politics becomes a business where you can obtain power for free and sell it, it will attract the nation's most corrupt people like a magnet.
But if the government is there to do what the Declaration of Independence says it is there to do, the only type of person attracted to politics will be the honest, principled, freedom-loving leaders such as the first President of the United States was.
