Reply to comment by signedpants in Republican Doug Mastriano told supporters he didn't get any money from Ohio derailment train operator Norfolk Southern. Records show he took $1,000. by Pennzingers

That's the thing. The way the system SHOULD work is companies give what they can to candidates they agree with.

Candidates don't know or care where the money is coming from and their actions don't change.

If you're a company, you give your money to the politician(s) that would make running your company easier. Hopefully that helps them win.

Pretty tough to not pay attention to which super pacs are giving you tens of millions of dollars unfortunately.
