Trillions are at stake over who controls the federal government, or even pieces of it. There's a reason why nobody spends $100 million a year to lobby Google but they do the government. The biggest crooks go where the biggest opportunity is, that's all.
- jrumbut 6y agoIs that true? Google is never approached by sales people? Never threatened by lawyers? Never protested by activists? Never receives petitions or gets unsolicited advice from thinktanks? I don't know about $100 million but they get their fair share of what is essentially lobbying I'm sure.
- vlovich123 6y agoIf I gave you $10 you could manage it just fine I presume by yourself. If I gave you $100 trillion, wouldn't you hire people to manage it for you & make sure it didn't get stolen from you? At a minimum, you'd pay for some physical security from anyone trying to take your riches, right?
