Get Rich Quick
The quickest way to get rich is to invent a problem government must solve. Then seek public office, claiming you'll fix it.
Raise campaign funds buy a new wardrobe, new car, campaign buss,
hire wife's brother as paid consultant. It's easier if your already an elected official. They don't have to have any idea how to correct
problems. Just how to get appointed to head a committee.
See how it works.
