    They employ a lot of people in the St. Louis area. They bring a lot of high paying jobs to the area and the government likes that.

      Not sure why you are being down-voted. It doesn’t have to be bribes that causes a person to vote some way. Just bringing a shitload of jobs to an area would cause a politician to vote a certain way. Because jobs makes voters happy, and happy voters would vote for that person again, so they stay in power.

        It’s the internet, I did a wrong think. People can’t make corporate America the evil villain if you find a silver lining and it helps someone.

      I got a job for all those people and more.

      Building free public housing. And keep doing it until being a landlord isn’t a “job”.
