  And the bribe is so cheap compared to what the company would had to pay

  Examples:

  Boeing, just needed to donate $1 mil and let the CEO travel with an idiot to help the Qatari royal family dump their white elephant that was actually a money pit

  Nvidia, just needed to book a $1 mil dinner at mar a Lago to lift their export ban and start printing billions

  All the crypto bros,

  And so on

  It’s basically a no-brainer move, a 1000x return on investment

  Let’s be real, they already were pay for play before, now they’re just honest about it. Remind me, how many proven unsafe additives does the US allow into food that have been banned by evey other developed country for decades?

    No, that’s being underfunded and corrupted. Now they’re literally a pay to win. The destination of the road to corruption is much worse than simply being on the road itself.

      Look I’m not saying it isn’t worse now. Everything is obviously worse now.

      What I’m saying is that things were already bad before, and we need to look at the root cause because as bad as he is, mango mussolini is just another symptom of the rot that’s been around since long before any of this.

        “let’s be real they were already a pay for play…” That directly implies they are not worse now.

        If you want to figure out the root of rot that will always be present (as long as there are billions of humans, there WILL be many, many greedy, heartless fucks clawing for power and abusing that power), using language that denies the backslides will always be counterproductive.
