    “You have been deemed rich/important enough that we’ll allow you to bribe us”

    Let’s be honest, that’s what this is. It’s rich people paying money to talk to those with political power. It’s a method of ensuring that those with political power can get a crapload of money in exchange for “listening to the grievances” of a select few. It’s an arrangement for connecting people with power and money more closely, while excluding the common masses from the rooms where decisions are made. It’s… corruption.

      thats probably why these flyers are mailed in affluent communities. they already got the poors/plebs by the ropes, since they know people already support them anyways.
