Just how will the politicians profit? Sure, they'll get something, but invitations to fancy parties, federal salaries, and speaking fees are chump change in the grand scheme of the money to be made in health care and global warming. And they'll get their ego's stroked. But greedy bastards after federal executive pay! LOL. So just how did they get there stacks of money they hide in the freezer? People who get the contracts pay them. The tax money goes to a contractor or bureacrat for legitimate purpose, then a portion is converted to cash. usually from a contractors profits. It's not chump change. IMO the normal politican pay is not enough, they are almost all in it for the graft.
