The problem isn't money in politics. It's politicians with absolutely no knowledge about economics. Healthcare system became an entangled mess of the private and public sector in the first place because the government tried to implement a price floor on salaries, no lobbying required. Even the most unscrupulous of politicians should recognize that a few thousand dollars in campaign contributions and front row tickets to a college football game isn't a fair trade for handing pharmaceutical companies a blank check from an account with effectively infinite money. What happens is that the lobbyist butters the politician up and sounds smart, so the politician just listens to whatever the lobbyist is saying.
