One simple example:
In the entire USA, the US Tobacco Growers have made more donations to Willie Brown (when he was Speaker/Majority leader) than any politician in America. Yet not one tobacco leaf was ever cultivated in his district. What were the tobacco growers buying? Influence.
California's sweeping anti-smoking policies were never even allowed to come to a full vote till Willy left office.
Tobacco money well spent. Will of the people deterred.
