Iacocca on the Influence of Foreign Lobbies in Washington
If Iacocca doesn’t know what we can do about foreign lobbies, who does? It isn’t that Americans are naive about world trade, we just don’t have a thing to say about it--and to whom would we say it anyway? Just who is this political action committee, and what is the name of the game where it gave $2.6 million to congressional campaigns last fall?
How can foreign interests pressure our Treasury Department and Customs Service to change rulings regarding car imports?
As long as we poor saps (Americans) allow all this lobbying, God help this country.
If it walks like a lobbyist and quacks like a lobbyist, it must be bribery, and I thought that was illegal.
