Money buys politicians, which buys elections which buys what they do/don't do in congress. It's all an organized but legal crime syndicate. Extortion, bribery, etc are legal in politics, because politicians make the rules.
- brucephillips 9y agoI agree we should get the money out of politics, but let's be honest with our terms. The people do elect congress, though corrupt money is allowed to influence the people.
- m_alexgr 9y agoYes. Couldn't agree more. Politics in so called democracies is nothing more than legal organized crime syndication. In other words, politicians run legal protection rackets. Mafias.
