------

3.5 billion dollars were spent on political lobbying in 2019 alone.

What’s more is that political donations funded presidential add campaigns that topped 14 billion dollars.

These astronomical sums are not reserved for the big leagues of federal politics either, every year vast fortunes are spent influencing policy decisions from, the oval office and federal congress all the way down to local city councils.

But why is this allowed?

Political lobbying combined with huge campaign contributions from wealthy individuals and companies has started to seem tantamount to bribery, where the best interests of the voting public are seconded to who can write the biggest donation check fundamentally undermining democratic processes…. Right?


Well it’s time to defend the indefensible by learning how money works to influence politics and why we should want it to stay like this.
