Shady Shit - Tumblr Posts

Ha, the Faucet King of America!
I don’t pretend to be a DC insider (and after my time there I don’t want to be), but the shady stuff that bothered me is less insider trading-type stuff (although hearing hints about how certain prospective donors made their money after the Iraq invasion was sickening), and more the references to political influence peddling. That kind of confirmed my cynicism and despair about democracy on the federal level. :/
And I can’t imagine Chicago’s alll that different in that regard? :P
Capitalism.
I love it when I find what probably is but probably can’t be proven to be charitable foundation fraud when researching donors.
Nothing radicalizes you like spending all day studying millionaires, I swear to god.
