Gore

One of the many things that citizens get upset about is corruption. The free market capitalist system has raised more people out of poverty than any government or any religion or any charity but the number one enemy of the free market is corruption. Most of the time people who are corrupting the game do not commit any crime but use money, power and influence to change outcomes. One recent case of note is former VP Al Gore. When Al was VP his estimated net worth was about 2 million. He took the money he got from the Noble Prize and using his influence convinced some friends to invest in green energy companies. Later his companies received money from President Obama’s green programs and within 14 years he turned his two million into 100 million.
