ceenote,

How incompetent do you have to be to get in trouble for bribing politicians in this country? Those politicians worked so hard to make certain forms of bribery legal. I get why they’re upset.

ringwraithfish,

No, no, no…see, when big corporations do it that’s called “lobbying” not “bribes”.

lemmyseizethemeans,

If there’s a fine and no jail time it’s the cost of doing business.

The corruption is so endemic

deegeese,

ATT bribed legislators to cancel their COLR obligations as a monopolist, then had the gall to complain that California would not cancel COLR like in the states where they bribed regulators.

If I did this, I’d be in prison. Why do we allow organized crime to operate in plain sight like this?
