You aware the money is made AFTER they leave the government, right?

Nice window dressing by Joe

I guess only the boss can be corrupt. Gotta pay pop

Worst president in the history of America and it’s not even close

Joe jailed himself for election fraud? Quid pro quo? China collusion? Guess he's not interested in law and order but he loves corruption and the money it pays him.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Tequilla

1) People joining the WH not able to get payouts leaving their former employers only makes sense for large payments designed to gain favor. People need to be able to collect what is owed to them on the way out the door.

2) Putting 1 year bans on people leaving working for lobbyists is effectively a non-compete agreement that is in place for any key employees in any business ... so if anything this is just bringing the government loosely inline with the private sector

3) As Race I believe noted, the payouts come on the back end in terms of next job, next book, etc

Finally, the thing that needs to be evaluated is whether or not provisions are safeguarding, favoring, and insulating government employees vs being infused with mix from private sector. Regardless of political leaning, we should all be highly skeptical of career politicians ... particularly those that operate in a partisan manner.

What step? A rule that’s symbolic but doesn’t enforce the current system? You used to be intelligent, I don’t know what happened to you.

Joe is the me too president. Bet you didn't know Trump did the same thing

And Biden will do the same on the way out

Trump doesn’t believe in the GOP rule to do what the left says not what they do

This is a really bad misunderstanding of what’s happening. I expect Biden to do the same, these measures are put in place for individual presidency’s. The difference is Biden is blocking payments to his appointees on the way in.
