[Hoot Gibson]

I had a lobbyist who was a friend and he would tell me the stuff him and his other friend lobbyist would do and it was basically buying elected officials why do you thing these big pharmaceutical companies spend millions and millions of dollars for lobbyists to do what they do. these drug companies and other companies know what they are doing with that money. If it was an honest way to do business then it probably wouldn't cost that much

What you are describing is a crime. Why don't you turn your friend in?

Crooked politicians have done a great job convincing voters that lobbyists are the root of all evil and at the same time growing wealthy shaking down those same lobbyists to finance their campaigns and to fatten their personal net worths. It is sad to watch so many American voters fall for such scams over and over.
