This is most politicians. They have to say one thing to get the votes from individual citizens but they have to actually do something else to get the money they need from the corporations and special interest groups that they need to actually campaign and travel and do all the other things that they seem to be able to do on a 170k salary. Politicians live like rich people but only get a middle class salary. To make up the difference they vote in a manner that will get their PAC's funded. Most of the time all politicians have to do is not do anything. Status quote means special interests are happy and money keeps flowing. End of the day this works well for the politicians, citizens don't care what they actually do as long as they have the correct letter next to their name, just what they say.
