I don’t think it matters of it’s racial. The general principle of having someone try to buy out a government’s espoused moral principles sounds Very Bad. The reasoning is that if the government can be bought once, it can be bought twice, and thus it can be bought in general and is in the control of moneyed donors rather than the voting populace, proof by induction on the naturals—so to speak.
Lobbyists and their money already have massive influence over governments. Plus, whether it’s a good or bad idea, my claim is that most liberals would find the idea disgusting.
