They are paid to abuse that power, by the billionaires. The billionaires also pay them to keep folks fighting over any topic that keeps the people away from realizing what they are up to. Usually most of the more ridiculous claims from folks at outlets like Fox come right before billionaires cram themselves a tax break into an omnibus bill or repeal some fundamental human right or cut critical parts of your social services and supports.
I agree but its more than just the billionaires. For instance where I live there are no billionaires and the government is still the biggest thorn in my side.
The government is directly controlled by their individual billionaires.
