- boringuser2 3y agoWe're going to have to agree to disagree. The US has done terrible things in the too-recent future in the explicit name of making the world a better place. At least, that rationale triggers my gag reflex.

Much more impactful are dedicated lobby groups. For exmaple, there's a particular country that I'm not allowed to mention here under duress of being banned that has a lot of moneyed lobbying.
