QOTD - Pay To Play Politics

“We had a hierarchy in my office in Congress,” Mr. Mulvaney, a former Republican lawmaker from South Carolina, told 1,300 bankers and lending industry officials at an American Bankers Association conference in Washington. “If you’re a lobbyist who never gave us money, I didn’t talk to you. If you’re a lobbyist who gave us money, I might talk to you.” -- OMB Director/ CFPB Director/ former ultra- right South Carolina Rep. Mick "Dick" Mulvaney, saying the quiet part loud. Mulvaney got almost $63,000 from payday lenders while in office.  Guess he talked to them a lot.
