They're not paying millions to cut millions off of their taxes. They're paying thousands to cut millions. Y'all. This is arithmetic.

Spend a while in the ISP business, for a few of 'em, had eyes on this sort of thing for that particular field.

The cable providers would drop a couple of thousands in a politician's war chest, vote purchased. Imagine Comcast paying out $10,000 for every House and Senate seat, all of them. Chicken change.

If anything, I'm insulted our politicians don't require a substantial bribe. C'mon guys! If you're going to fuck millions of us over, get paid!

You're exactly right. Politicians are an extremely cheap date. It's disgraceful to sell out constituencies in the first place - and more disgraceful still that they do it for so little.

The revolving door between public service and private industry provides other forms of compensation while at the same time forcing subservience throughout elected tenure. It's devious.
