You actually can't be this naive when it comes to corruption and payoffs can you? Like actually? Try and maintain a little bit of an open mind. Not everything is corrupt and not everything is on the up. It's the way it works and when you know the people involved, it's an eye opener.
We literally have Fuzz in the AB Politics telling us about corruption within AHS and the UCP about selling off hospitals potentially. Do you think this is just all ideological driven and no payoff?
Look at something like the Calgary Arena deal, look just how much of a sweetheart of a deal that is for Flames ownership. Literally hundreds of millions of dollars in savings for them, is that not worth ANYTHING to the decision makers?
Perhaps for the AB politics thread but the AHS contracting scandal is actually a lot bigger than people think, a lot bigger. Say for example you effectively gifted close friends hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts, would you not ask for anything in return? People sign up for a new credit card and get enough welcome points for a short haul flight.
For the American politics thread, look at how open and honest Trump is with his corruption? People try to pass off billion dollar planes as gifts to the US Airforce, as if America is lacking in aircraft.
Some things as so plainly obvious when you know what is actually going on. Do you remember this little valuable piece of property?

Our lovely civic government who's just SOOOOO astute with minimizing financial losses. Golf courses losing a few hundred thousand, pools requiring the unimaginable capital investment of $500k. Just making sure that every penny of taxpayer money is protected
Nothing to see here!
