If you are a millionaire it means you are part of the 1%. If we go into American politics, lets see where the money is."About 47 percent of Congress, or 250* current members of Congress, are millionaires, according to a new study by the Center for Responsive Politics of lawmakers' personal financial disclosure forms covering calendar year 2010". The median wealth of all senators is $ 2.63 million, while "Kohl ranks as the fifth richest member of Congress, with an average net worth of $173.5 million"
Thats alot of cash and information. So to be in a position high in the government means that there is a way to get a high amount of cash from sources.
Its become easier for politicians to use the media and portray their messages nowadays rather than 30 years ago. Media messages spread like wild fire and these politicians use them to get their message to millions.
