The fact that your joke wasn't glaringly obvious (and I had seriously contemplated how much it'd cost to hire lobbyists), says much more about the shitty system

- zithtar 14y agoI know several Associates and Senior Associates at lobbying firms. A good state firm will run you $4-10k per month on a 1-year contract. Not sure about Federal but I'd imagine one of similar caliber would be 3-4x that. Now, this is in PA which has a relatively large, well-staffed and full-time legislature with (partisan politics aside) legislators who want to learn the issues and want to help their constituents. YMMV based on state.
