"Sullivan is classic example of the way Perry works," explained Andrew Wheat, research director with Texans for Public Justice. "There's a coterie of insiders that move back and forth between the governor's office, the governor's campaign and the corporate lobby. ... It's a beautiful relationship for everybody except the public."
Perry is just another INSIDER TOOL, folks.
If he wasn't you folks wouldn't even know his name.
The fact that he was a lobbyist ought not to surprise us.
While this looks unethical I'm sure it's perfectly legal. Unless they then hired hit teams to go after the retirees!All they had to do was convince retirees to let UBS buy life insurance policies on them. When the retirees died, those policies would pay out benefits to Wall Street speculators, and the state, supposedly, would get paid for arranging the bets. The families of the deceased former teachers would get nothing.

Why do you say "Lobbyist" like it's a bad word?
I wonder why you guys didn't asnwer my question, why would the insurance companies sign on to a scheme that would cost them money?
Agreed, except Romney is no better.Perry is a scumbag. I urge all Republicans to do some research on this guy. If you want Obama out, fair enough, vote for Romney or Paul. Perry will drive this country straight into the ground. Trust me, I've lived under his Governorship for almost 11 years. He hasn't accomplished anything except making a lot of money for himself and his cronies.

It's a legal scheme...scummy and unethical, but legal. How long before Governor Skeletor in Florida tries it?
