This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

It is the root of our dysfunction.

In truth, American government is the smallest amongst all the developed nations of the world as a % of GDP
