How corrupt is it?

How corrupt is the US political system? Bernie Sanders funnelled 80 million dollars for ad buys for his campaign in 2016 to a front company headquartered at a Virginia house owned by two of his staff, which thereby was paid a "commission" for placing the ads of some 12 million. What's really corrupt? It's perfectly legal and the FEC cannot even require the campaign to report or disclose who was behind it. His wife made 150000 dollars on a similar deal involving his ad buys when running for Congress. It's what's LEGAL that's really bad! This is a Loophole so big a Bernie Sanders For President Express Train can run through it.

Remember that Insider Trading law they passed in 2012 making it illegal for Congressmen to make money from their knowledge of congressional business? According to Schweizer (who details the above story and  many others in his latest book), it's been gutted. What he must mean by that is that the Sanders FEC manouveur, the Biden deals and the Warren activities involving getting federal contracts for her daughter's company and other matters are not technically land or stock deals and so they're still immune from prosecution. That upstate NY congressman Collins who was caught doing insider trading for his son should have simply had him set up a federal contracting business like Warren's daughter instead.

As for Biden, read just some of the stuff he and his family were doing in all of these areas of scams and on four continents and you are reminded of that wild guy who used to flog a book in the eighties and nineties that told you how to get federal loans, grants, subsidies and other benefits. The new edition should be titled: Papa Biden and the Amazing Flying Biden Family show you how to become a MILLIONAIRE for FREE (WARNING: You will need to get elected to Federal office first for the Amazing Biden Get Rich Quick Plan to work!).  Oh a reminder, Joe Biden alone (a man with no practical career business or experience whatsoever) has accrued $50 million in net worth since he left office... on January 20, 2017! He and family have definitely written the book on honest graft. Now I hope that, as they did with the Clintons, the voters throw the book at them (because one is sure that Schweizer is right that the Press and the FBI won't).
