So now here is a summary of the Netflix-Obama relationship:
Netflix CEO raises large amounts of money for Obama in 2012 campaign; Netflix lobbies and gets net neutrality; and then, around 16 months after Obama leaves office, the Obamas get a contract worth $50 million even though they have no experience providing content.
Since Obama, Netflix, and others are so interested in equality, I am sure they will be glad to list all other similar contracts to the Obama's with other men, women, blacks, Hispanics, LGBTQ members, and others. They should highlight the contracts with other people with no experience.
It should be especially degrading to other producers and developers of content who have gone through school, worked their way up, and plied their trade their entire lives to get small contracts that all the Obamas had to do was use the husband's powerful government-paid position to push through a regulation to get rewarded so handsomely. I have to hand it to the Obamas. They didn't set up a fake charity like the Clintons to take the kickbacks or have to give hundreds of speeches to greatly enrich themselves. They just signed a contract and took the money directly.
Reed Hastings, by the way, was not the first bundler Obama rewarded. Solyndra comes to mind, and there were many more.

The Obamas are simply carrying on the corruption methodology that the Clintons perfected.
That’s how crony-capitalism works.
When government controls everything, businessmen must be involved in politics.
Looks like there needs to be Federal investigations and prosecutions. Slap a few of these bastards in jail for colluding, and the future occurrences of it will lessen.

Ping. This sort of stuff started in the runup to the Civil War. Henry Clay called this system of collusion "Mercantilism."
Ping to my previous message.
Bribes...the African way.
Finally nice to have a president who cannot be bought.
Netflix gets 0 money from me.
Never has, never will.
I quit Netflix today— And gave obama as the reason
BOY, DID IT MAKE FEEL GOOD!!!!
It’s the Chicago way.
Netflix is a great value. I do not have regular TV, not even an antennae. I simply have Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. That's it. I rent movies from Google Play. Trust me, it makes a huge difference than simply cancelling altogether.
Under Clinton, The Swamp went after them until the company did hire a lot more of the political hack lawyers.
..... In the Criminal World this is called Money Laundering .... In the Democrat World this is called a Coincidence .....
Exactly.
I will keep mine also. I fully in tend to down vote anything that has that lying scumbag’s name attached.
Let Netflix pay attention to that.
My association with Netflix is two-at-a-time DVD rental. I don’t watch TV and if I did, I sure wouldn’t watch anything Netflix offers.
until these foundations are investigated and taxed accordingly, nothing will change...
