- sbarre 9y agoThere's also the other perspective here where they are hiring subject-matter experts to help them figure out how to work with the government in order to resolve this? Remember a "lobbyist" is really a "government process consultant" at the end of the day.. and there are no doubt good and bad ones. The same way you'd hire a technical consultant when your business encounters an obstacle or challenge you have insufficient experience with and can't afford to spend the time learning on the job.

- sbarre 9y agoCan you disprove my statement? I may not have hard facts to back it up, but I have enough real-world experience to know that most companies, regardless of how "evil" they are made out to be, tend to be populated by people who are actually trying to do the right thing (and of course sometimes fail badly). Not everything is a conspiracy of evil.
