Money, applied strategically to the right politician as a political contribution, or a price of admission to a “fund-raiser” that you can attend for a few hundred or thousand dollars on Capitol Hill. Sometimes the lobbyists hold the fundraiser which relieves the lawmaker the burden of collecting his own campaign contributions. There are meals served, usually steak, lobster, shrimp, caviar and wine. There are gifts and vacations which general revolve around golf. There are quid pro quo collaborative efforts, with lobbyists writing the bills that benefit them while they make available their resources for the politicians to travel and even run their political campaigns.
