Why do political candidates spend hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars to get elected to a job that pays a fraction of the cost of the campaign? I have a relative who used up 1/2 million $ for a state office. For a small stipend plus travel. They’re wealthy now. I had a neighbor that was a rising star. Went pretty high. Was corrupted, got convicted.
