Welcome to a land where the local rich can press money out of party functionaries!

I'm not so sure about that. If that were true, I don't think the local rich would be so eager to join the party membership.

You don't have to join the party here - just throw a few $1000 at a fundraising dinner to get the guy offering the biggest tax breaks elected.
