Well, if you have 50 million dollars to spend on what you believe in and I have a hundred dollars to spend on what I believe in, which of our beliefs is likely to get more attention? For example, financial interests gave tons of money to politicians in the last election cycle, and one of them, rep. Kevin Yoder of Kansas inserted a rider to the appropriations bill to allow financial institutions to trade risky credit swaps once again. It was financial tools like that that in part, led to the financial meltdown in '08. Soros is another wealthy political donor.
