Rich people buying Congressional seats

What do Mr. Bognet, Ms. Schaller, and Mr. Meuser have in common?  All three are rich people who decided that wealth is a qualification to represent Pennsylvania in congress, especially since they have enough money to fund their campaigns and buy their seats.

Meuser is already in Congress, where he rails against crime and immigrants and hasn’t a clue about how to make the world, the country, or his state better.  He moved twice to be in a district where Republicans routinely win.

Schaller ran a manufacturing plant in Lansford until she decided unionized workers were getting paid too much and moved the operation to China.

Bognet is a nothing burger whose main contribution is to run misleading commercials against his moderate opponent Matt Cartwright.  Think of Bognet as Meuser light.

I could add Dr. Oz to this list, and I’m sure you can think of others.  And yet people keep voting for these jerks.
