      Politicians should always “buy votes” by acting in the interest of their constituents. The vote “buying” that should really concern you is called lobbying (see: citizens united), or in some cases outright bribery (see: Justice Thomas; also see: Trump literally selling pardons), or in some cases corruption to point of loss of life (see: the entire Iraq war and surrounding sweatheart contracting deals).

      In summary: investing in the future by supporting education: good.Dismantling the EPA for short term political gain at the expense of multiple generations worth of irreparable harm: bad.

      Most of us don’t understand the political system in the US, it’s so outdated it’s incredible.

      But I had it explained to me quite simply - "Remember, most people there are terrible drivers, and all they know is D = forward and R = backwards

      Applies to your politics too lol
