Want to stop corruption?
Have a law passed by Congress (which they will never do) that any U.S. senator or U.S. congressman or any part of their staff accepts favors of any kind from any lobbyist, registered or not, shall be removed from office upon being proven guilty. This approach should be done in all state legislatures, city and county governments and all judicial systems. Until this has been done, "it's business as usual." Power corrupts and corruption is power,
P.S. Don't wait for Congress to police itself.
