What if I were to set up a corperation with the hidden purpose of gaining government contracts, and using the money I make from it to strategically place government officials. What If I used those government officials to make it easier to gain those contracts without having to be very competitive with the service I provided or the price I provided it at. Then perhaps I offer jobs in my corperation to those officials children or family members and friends so that the politicians have a vested interest in the seccess of my corperation. On top of this I will use the government to spy on those that try to stop me and I will rewrite the laws to make what I am doing legal. Then nothing I do will be illegal because I used the profit of my crimes to rewrite the laws before being caught or prosecuted. On top of that I will set up a government over seas and the when then when It looks like I might get caught I will take all the profit and power and resourses and I will move it to that country.

At what point will my aims at manipulating the government and finding ways to divert it's reasources from the common good to my own benifit, become treason? What if I use that peoples' government and it's military to foster my agenda even if it does great damage to the structure of the country and sets it at enmity with other nations. If this is not treason have I at least made myself an enemy of the people. Would the people who aid my corperation be guilty of treason. If I am not guilty of treason then am I an enemy that the people can wage dirrect war against? Oh and by the way I was thinking about moving my corperation to a desert nation where I will build a large indoor ski slope. Perhaps I will just teraform the whole nation to remind me of the country I came from.

It's not right, and there are supposed to be regulations to keep that from happening.
Unfortunately the system has steadily broken down over the last six years, and more and more government contractors are spending their money to influence elections, and to buy off politicians.

What if? What if? What if? Get over it dude. I'm not stupid. Everyone on here knows you are just saying this to support your "Hate Bush" agenda. Find something better to do with your time because these statements are useless.
