Political Lobbying, Mining Lobby Groups, and Conflict of Interest
The chapter delves into the issue of politicians transitioning from politics to lobbying roles, specifically within mining lobbying groups, potentially leading to conflicts of interest. It discusses the influence of mining companies on politicians through private jet trips, political donations, and the privatization of key industries. The episode explores solutions like emulating Norway's model of half-nationalized companies and imposing cooling-off periods for politicians to prevent conflicts of interest.
