A good start
US Treasury to restrict lobbying on bailout funds
The rules restrict lobbyist contacts in connection with applications for or disbursement of the Treasury’s $700 billion bailout program, the Treasury said in a statement.
This is a great start. Notice there is no restriction on OTHER lobbying though, such as lobbying for the relaxation of regulations, against the regulations that might have prevented this nonsense in the first place, lobbying for more mergers, against antitrust action…..
