I don't know why people read stuff like this and then put themselves in corporate's shoes who can lobby up to 100s of millions

when is the last time you lobbied 50 million dollars as a citizen? is this something you do frequently? maybe ask these questions before your gotchas

I'm not sure if "lobbied 50 million dollars" is even grammatically correct.

What does lobbied 50 million dollars even mean?

If you mean they donated 50 million in dark money to a PAC, then we're agreed - that's bribery and should be included in anti-bribery laws. SCOTUS fucked up egregiously when they allowed unlimited dark money to flow into campaigns.
