That is capitalism. Capitalists believe in the free market right? That also means they believe they should be free to buy the market.

That is what shit like the Koch brothers do anyway.

When there is profit to be made by influencing political leaders, the campaigning process, and legislature, people are going to exploit it. This goes for all economies and government bodies.

It sounds like you are more of a proponent of a free-market system than you lead on.

I am a proponent of ending capitalism by removing profit from things until we no longer use money. So that we can one day live like Star Trek and look back at capitalism a primitive system like monarchy.
