The government has billions of dollars. Thankfully government officials are immune to the corrupting influence of billions of dollars.

The bad part is that congress is bought so cheaply. Not with billions.

Under our current system you have to be daft to not invest in buying the government--it's a great return on your investment!

Budget (in theory) is controlled by Congress, this is a bunch of people with their agendas who aim for being reelected.

The true billionaire doesn't have anybody else to ask and can finance the campaign to get somebody (not) elected.

The government hands out the money. It has as much money wealth as the economy it governs is able to provide.
