Congress is the political wing of American capitalism. The #1 way they get there is by appeasing moneyed interests. Only by pissing off just enough voters, do they lose elections in favor of some other person who has already appeased enough moneyed interest. Appeasement is necessary because elections are expensive and aren't publicly funded.
