      Either way the amounts are a total steal for the value they get. Seriously feel like maybe we should just give in and make a Kickstarter platform for bribing politicians ourselves. At least make the billionaires have to outbid us.

        unfortunately, we already collaborate to pay them. It’s called Taxes and a Salary. How much have we already paid thomas? 33 years in the role, around $250k/year avg, we’ve collectively paid him 8.25 million already to NOT be a corrupt piece of shit. Giving him more isn’t the answer.

        I think there are quite a few crowdfunded lobby groups already, but I don’t vouch for any in particular.
