> Schtupping

Note that word isn't joint to tupping unless you're from Tasmania.

  Shtupping comes from Yiddish, while tupping comes from an old English/Scots agricultural term relating to rams.
I wonder what "commission" the VP received.

I wouldn't be surprised if a much larger proportion of big business and politics boiled down to this

Yeah there's lots of ethics rules and stuff about it but we've seen how little the upper class cares about that

Whenever a big business deal goes down, I tend to assume someone's getting sex or money out of the deal

Frankly there's already just so much corruption that we know about and it seems unlikely we know about all of it or even most of it
