    Buying politicians can get expensive. Wont you think of the poor billionaires that would have to cut down on their bribery if there were a wealth tax??

      Buying politicians is depressingly cheap. Like, on the order of tens of thousands of dollars or less. Firmly out of reach for the average citizen but for the power players that’s one good night out on a weekend.
