According to a new study by the Hoover Institution - a conservative think tank...
Yeah. You are an idiot.
With every rabble-rousing investigative reporter and busybody smelling their butts, the only group able to make an accusation, that they refuse to actually take to court but instead turn into prime-time entertainment and from there let the issue die is...an organization that exists only to create corporate propaganda.
It's as if
Pravda accused Reagan of adultery.
Same principle - propaganda organ making outrageous charges because they have no agenda other than pushing theirs.
The single greatest proof that you are wrong is that no one goes into politics for the money. People do it because they either want power or to serve their country. Senators are veteran politicians who have been in the business for many decades - they didn't graduate from college with a degree in finance thinking, "I want to earn a million bucks on graft".
The premise of that argument, which you are stupid enough to buy into, is that the corps are innocent because no human authority could possibly behave with the least bit of responsibility with privileged information. Congress doesn't profit - the corps do.
Did Congress run people out of their lawfully owned homes?
Did Congress pollute the water and destroy our natural resources?
Did Congress create an economic typhoon through irresponsible practices?
Did Congress run the money supply?
Did Congress completely destroy industry and employment in this country through corporate raiding?
No - the corps did. And people like you are stupid enough to fall for blatant propaganda. Like the Commies who blame the capitalists for crop failures and say that the answer is to redouble their devotion to the Party.
The corps have gone out of their way to balance the system in their favor. Not politicians. Again, blame the scammed not the scammer. Blame the guy with the gun to his head and not the guy holding it.
