Companies like Blackrock also lobby those politicians with that wealth they're pretending and investing.
"lobbying" is just spending money in hopes of getting more favourable laws passed, which is a form of investment in the company's future.
Lobbying is a sanitised word for bribery.
Sure, the system feeds itself.
