My point is the line 'no one stays clean in the beltway' is and very much greater than thou attitude. We all like to rip on k-street and politicos however I don't think tech is on some great white horse that we can speak down on everyone else.

I say "no one stays clean" from 20 years working with lobbyists I believed in and still sincerely think we did some good work.

The corrupting influence of DC can't be avoided. You swim in the cesspool with the gators, you come out covered in crap.

Fair but who do you think funds k-street?
