MORE THAN HALF of NRA lobbyists held jobs in government.

"REVOLVING DOOR
15 out of 28 National Rifle Assn lobbyists in 2012 have previously held government jobs"

National Rifle Assn: Summary | OpenSecrets

How is this revolving door between government and lobbyists not corruption exactly? Didn't we learn anything from Jack Abramoff?

Pretty sure you can find similar stats in any industry. Lobbyist is what you do after you get out of Government.
