a few years ago where it was like, if you make any money from a government contract, you should not be allowed to work in that sector for 20 years after you made, there's something like you shouldn't be able to be a defense contractor and then, you know what I mean, go into- Revolving door.
And anything like that probably is a good idea if you can get it passed.
Good luck getting it passed.
But the issue really comes like the major problem
is the most powerful organization in the history of the world, that they spend seven trillion dollars a year.
And this is that is so much power.
Like, it's just it's hard to quantify.
It's literally like like if you think about it in your mind, right, like you think about like how much money Elon Musk has.
And then just to think that one year of federal spending is like squishing him like an ant.
Like, it's nothing, dude.
Like, the money Elon Musk has is nothing compared to $7 trillion, you know?
That's just one year, what they spend in Washington, D.C.
And when you have that much concentrated power, the idea of saying, well, we're going to write a rule that says nobody's allowed to try to manipulate that power.
Okay, and then you know look there are rules.
There's all types of funny way to put it because it's like so undeniable Well look there there are rules that say that like foreigners aren't allowed to contribute to Political campaigns and like there's different regulations on all of them But like Saudi Arabia is not allowed to give Hillary Clinton's campaign ten million dollars
But they could give the Clinton Foundation $10 million.
