I mean, it’s possible, but come on. That’s an incredible amount of money changing hands due to their district keeping the system structured in a certain way that attracts business.
Even if they just “fell into” it, a lot of people in positions of influence are going to get greedy very quickly, because that has never not happened in the history of ever.
If you scratch the surface, you’re going to see a lot of legislators’ and judges’ kids and family getting sweet, do-nothing jobs for these companies, lots of little (and big) gifts, luncheons, galas, vacations (ahem, sorry, “conferences”) and so on paid for by the beneficiaries of these systems.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a few investigative reports from a few years back that found some of this stuff when they were barely even trying, just reporting on what was right there in their face. And it’s virtually guaranteed that if there smoke… Well, you know the rest.
So to reiterate, where’s the FBI? I feel like there’s so many red flags that it’d give a bull a seizure, and they don’t seem to be interested. Maybe because it involves the judiciary, and they don’t want to step on those toes as a professional courtesy?
