I'm really surprised at the way in which this (and the whole "lobbying" concept) is not only perceived as ok in the US, but seems to be almost encouraged by regular people.
We don't have it (at least not overtly), and it would really, really piss the populace off it was happening. I'm talking about the big lobby groups which spend huge sums of money telling the politicians how to think. I sort of see it as corrupt...
If I'm wrong about how it works, I apologise. It is how it seems from the outside looking in.
