This is just one example of a deep rooted problem with our Congress. It covers many topics we discuss , that need serious reform. Especially when it comes to foreign influence on elections. I have pointed out, for many, many years, that foreign bundlers, PAC's etc. are influencing our elections. But, it is completely ignored on these forums and out in the world.
This is from an article posted on the immigrant thread: (by my respectful friend, jhu72)
Customs and Border Protection has also come under fire for a $297 million contract it awarded to Accenture, a government contractor brought in to improve the agency's hiring process. The company was supposed to receive $40,000 per new hire.
The contract was awarded in November 2017. By October 2018, the company had completed only two new hires but been paid more than $13.6 million, according to a Homeland Security inspector general report. Customs and Border Protection defended the contract, arguing that Accenture had reformed the agency's hiring practices and had completed 22 hires by December 2018.
Who is Accenture?
Yet another NYSE traded stock, (ACN) that fits my criteria of earning 85% of it's revenue from tax dollars, and my pipe dream of limiting salaries by a 20 to 1 ratio, highest to lowest. Of course, the majority of stock is owned by institutional investors, hiding members of Congress stock ownership. The usual suspects like Vanguard, Fidelity and interestingly, the California Public Employees fund. Where is the outrage? Where is Gov. Brown, Sen. Kamalia Harris stand? Stock ownership of a company locking up families

Pretty even split between the D's and R's, which is usually the case. How you (collective) are not calling your US Representative and Senator up and complaining about this fraud committed by Accenture is telling. Further, we don't hear one peep from any of these politicians. All this smokeNmirrors focus on Russia collusion.
Issues like this, IMHO, ARE the issue. The problem. It's needs to be discussed. Contact your Congress person
How many fake accounts are accounting for the accounts of fake-ness. Use your head for once.
