Like lobbying the US president to harm their competitors?

I would suggest "lobbying" is not the correct word to describe all the corruption going on in the current USA administration cesspool.

lobbying/legalised bribery hard to say where one ends and another begins at times.

Where in the Wealth of Nations does a Trump appear?

Oh.

Administration corrupted up to it's very core? Check.

Nihilism of anyone not part of the proper color, gender, whatever agenda? Check.

Unlawful surveillance? Check.

Sending totally innocent citizens to prison with many of them dying mysteriously? Check.

Killing innocent people in the streets simply because they dare protest peacefully? Check.

Welcome to North Korea!

Oups. Confused.

Welcome to the GREAT US of A! Where True Capitalism is practiced.

You need to go back to school and demand a refund if you think any of that is "true capitalism."

Better yet, just go back to Reddit.
