Washington is for sale to the highest bidder, literally.

Politics is legalized corruption. Sound crazy? What is the job of a lobbyist?

—Selling art
—Donations to charities
—Donations to foundations
—De facto insider trading
—Huge speaking fees
—Hiring relatives

There are a hundred different ways, but one thing is a fact, most of Congress becomes very wealthy while “serving the public.”

They spend billions.
