    It’s depressing how little these politicians sell themselves for. If I were being asked to do my best to destroy climate-change-mitigation efforts, I’d at least demand enough cash up front to live like a king for life, not a one-time vacation. I like to think I’d have the strength of character not to be bribed at all, of course. But if I were looking for a bribe I’d sure as hell want one so big that I wouldn’t have to care about public opinion for the rest of my life.
