Story at-a-glance
Shocking story of former super political lobbyist Jack Abramoff in which he explains how he influenced Congress for years; was caught breaking the law and sent to federal prison. He shares many of the dirty secrets that he and other lobbyists use to steal the government away from you. Since he already served prison time for this, he can’t go back to jail for what he reveals
The pharmaceutical industry is the largest lobby in the U.S. Last year, the industry spent over $244 million lobbying for favorable legislation and tax breaks
The most effective strategy employed by industry and lobby groups is the promise of extremely lucrative jobs once their service on the Hill is over. Similarly, revolving doors between industry and the federal agencies that oversee them have caused untold harm by hampering health freedom and promoting corporate interests
According to Abramoff, to curtail this type of corruption within the halls of Congress, members of Congress and their staff must be prohibited from ever becoming lobbyists once they leave office
