I don’t see a problem here. I like lobbyists. And I think this call by Obama to restrict lobbying is dangerous.
The lobbyists aren’t the problem............ corrupt politicians are the problem.
Ditto.
Lobbyists in general aren’t bad, some individuals may be, some causes may be, and some politicians, but they overall are an important part of the political process.
“The lobbyists aren’t the problem............ corrupt politicians are the problem.”
Most of the lobbyists ARE politicians, former congressmen. It’s kind of a ‘chicken vs. egg’ thing.
