"The more things change, the more they stay the same."

While still in office, public officials can expect fact-finding missions and conferences, sponsored by those executives, in exotic locales. Need I mention campaign contributions and shadowy PACs? Their lobbyists provide prepackaged bills with accompanying voluminous studies supposedly in support. This makes you appear to be a lawmaker of some imagined stature. During campaigns their media assistance can paint any opponent, even Mother Teresa, as an evil cad. As a result, voters will be ecstatic that you have sold their birthright down the river.

Afterwards, what politician wants to go back to plebian drudgery selling insurance or cars or managing a holy roller daycare center, when, if he shows proper deference, he can sit a conference table instead?

The deck is stacked.
