6 mil and 2.6 mil? damn these congresspeople come cheap.
Around COVID I had checked on donations to one of my local state reps and found out they had bought off by a corporation for a $3400 check. We were making jokes at my work about getting together and pitching in a few bucks each to pass laws
Holy shit! Mexican politicians are way more expensive. My small town mayors of a poor town in the middle of nowhere sell for several million worth of construction contracts.
I remember hearing a british MP had been bought off with something like 1200 pounds worth of dinners and stuff. Global North politicians cannot fathom the numbers we have in the global south.
Over a Congressional span of 9 years amd 3 years, respectively.
damn, any idea why they're pushing this bill or who it might be on behalf of?
America, clearly. Otherwise is to say the tail is wagging the dog.
