Paid lobbyists run in herds here in Ottawa, Canada's Capital city. One group hired one of our former radical Liberals to lobby the Conservative government for law enforcement use of a stun-gun. Either the group is stunned, or Liberals don't stand on principles...mebe both?

Few years ago I was working in a state economic development agency here in New Hampshire, we owned two building near the state capital building we used to rent space to the lobbyist. But being good economic development types we charged them more than regular businesses and they never asked why.
By the way, speaking of being ridiculous, New Hampshire has just over 1 Million residents, while New Hampshire has the third largest legislative body in the English-speaking world. But to keep them humble we don't pay them.
