We are forced to pay taxes that support PP. The presumption for a tax recipient is that the business does not have funds to pay for services that should be subsidized by taxes, so tax payers are forced to pay up. When they turn around and give that money to politicians in a position to keep funds coming their way it fits your criteria ... corruption. First they must not have needed it since they are using it for political contributions so the basis for taking the taxes is fraudulent. They are a profit making business who uses taxes people are forced to pay to fund politicians who are then obligated to vote more funding for them. The people who are opposed to them are forced to pay for a corrupt scheme. When you see the USAF donating to a Republican's campaign you will get it. Teachers unions fund politicians but the teachers contribute to the Teachers Union voluntarily, which is fair even though some of us don't like the way it is works. Unions for government servants are a contradiction in terms from the start but it is a different issue.
