it's the reason every incumbent gets re-elected - he throws a few million so we shouldn't care about the failed policies he supports.I gave an answer, but I am sure you are already preparing your argument.
He's a tax and spend, liberal, i.e. socialist, politician, but because he throws a few dollars our way we'll elect him - but the "people" (that would be everybody but us) need to defeat the incumbents who support those policies.
It's a demonstration of how stupid and near sighted the voters are.
