One word:. Bribes
Look at the Clinton Foundation. Every single penny donated to it came from foreign governments and corporations to purchase favors and immunity from the US government. Soros has $14 Billion and access to untold more $ billions. Politicians and bureaucrats are whores and will do anything (even protect a James Bond type villain like Soros from prosecution) for a price.
It’s just that simple. Unbelievable, yes. But still true.
quite believeable. anyone who’s worked in government knows that bribes are honest government’s most dangerous enemy
