Self-proclaimed “killer lobbyist” and convicted felon Jack Abramoff had a lot of time to think about the system of influence peddling that rules Washington while he was in prison. In this episode of Nation Conversations, Abramoff argues that reforming the lobbying world will certainly be difficult, but it will also be absolutely necessary because the system he exploited for so long is not “a system that, whether one’s on the Right or the Left, one can look at and say, ‘This is good for the country.'”
