I’d have to say, our politicians are so rich because theyre so crooked.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
You’d be amazed at how lucrative insider trading is. We know that at least 2 people – Nancy Pelosi and Richard Barr engaged in it
concerned says
2? How about all of them
Walter Sieruk says
Of course there can be little to no doubt that Nancy Pelosi , Joe Biden and Barack Obama have become rich by insider trading . Another factor as to why they are so filthy rich is because they accept bribes from countries as China and Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
Bribes that result in the establishment of US polices that very unfavorable to the betterment and interest to the United State to the advancement of that Red tyranny of China and the jihad goals of those two Islamic kingdoms just mentioned.
It’s also fitting to bring up the fact that Proverbs 17:23 of the Bible reads “The wicked accept bribes in secret to pervert to course of justice.” [N.I.V.]
Walter Sieruk says
About corrupt men who while being in a position of power, As Barrack Obama and Joe Biden, who engage illegal and unethical means of obtain much money for themselves by for example, insider trading and the taking of bribes , it outright terrible.
This is a reminder of the righteous ethical wisdom of the former US President, Theodore Roosevelt, who, rightly, declared “A man holding that very important Office “should be sharply watch by the people [and] held to a strict accountability by them.”

American Politicians are so rich because they are involved in corruption, crime, and evil doing.
somehistory says
For the most part, the successful ones are wealthy before they begin to run.
Secondly, they make promises to the really rich who then see that money flows their way.
Thirdly, they get a hefty paycheck and can decide when they get raises and how much.
All of their expenses of their office are paid by the taxpayers…a staff, all office supplies, trips, etc. so their office costs them nothing (unlike the average worker who must buy whatever they need, pay for transportation, etc.) Because they don’t have to actually support themselves on their paychecks, they can allow it to collect interest in fat bank accounts.
Even though they are not supposed to accept ‘gifts,’ there are loopholes, so when they go out to eat, etc., they get free stuff because of who they are.
and then there are fees they charge for giving speeches, writing books, and other ways they profit from their success in office…being re-elected over and over.
And then as already mentioned by another….insider trading where they can buy low, make a huge profit and then sell when things are going to be even more profitable. That way, they avoid losing money as many ordinary citizens do who play the market.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
Yes.
Also, the very large advances for books to well-known politicians – that never sell.
somehistory says
the ugly witch, hillary’s never did….but she was paid a bundle. None of them are equal to any good writers…Dickens, Hawthorne, etc., yet they get a lot more $. Kind of like hunter biden’s paintings…crud, and worthless, but was sold for large bundles.
It’s a racket and the public are the little birds made to fly in formation so the racketeers can profit.
Michael Skok says
“We may never see that happen.”
We aren’t waiting for a congress that is free of corruption. The Bible says that things will get worse and worse. There is corruption, and there will be more corruption. What we are waiting for is the Second Coming.
