I see.
What I don't understand is how they convert those donations to vote ? It was more the sense of my questions. It's one thing to donate but can't there only be a reward if the supported politician wins ?
they shouldnt, but they do. Campaign contributions, leads to getting elected, leads to voting for issues that this person/corporate interest agrees with, leads to that congress person leaving and taking a high six-figure position with said corporation or interest. Rinse and repeat.

But what does it mean ? I don't understand how stuff works in the US politics-wise but why is it a problem to donate much ? It's not like it's a vote, is it ?

It's essentially a vote. And it's essentially legalized bribery like mastermind said. And it means the political process is becoming more and more a vehicle for rich people to manipulate and for us plebs to just sit on the sidelines, cast our little votes and recline into obscurity.

But I will say the Koch brothers are the the best thing to happen for the democrats. They've fervently painted the Koch brothers as these shadowy tentacled daemons from the bowels of hell who have come to destroy American democracy as we know it which has scared the living shyt outta Democratic donors which in turn has them funneling even more cash to the democrats.

Money race is all it is :manny:

he's mid-table good :yeshrug: name me one thing he can do that will help a top 4 team or a team with top 4 aspirations

I see i should've emphasized that "Sir Alex Tenure" part because my point was exactly that. Great managers seem to get the best out of average players. He was a focal part of that Everton team, extremely versatile and powerful, far from the current :trash:he's churning out for ya'll. If he was signed under Sir Alex, trained under Sir Alex, played under Sir Alex he would've been :ohmy: . Twas an innocuous comment but clearly ya'll are hurt by how shytty he's been :russ:

you are avoiding the question though :mjpls: "name me one thing he can do that will help a top 4 team or a team with top 4 aspirations?"
