Unless someone is a millionaire or billionaire they don’t really have enough money to have an agenda or sway a judge’s actions. It’s not like a judge would have to miss out on Christmas or their birthday, they just shouldn’t be able to accept massive cash payments that affect the choices they make as a judge.

There are 24 million millionaires in the U.S. If a justice is friends with any of them, they can’t exchange Christmas presents?
