By cutting costs, we really can increase profit: Between the last two years of the Clinton/Gore administration and the first two years of the Bush/Cheney administration Halliburton (yes, that Halliburton, the former employer of Veep Cheney), cut its lobbying expenditures in half ($1.2B to $600M), yet saw the value of its work increase 800% ($1B to $8B). Verbal Jazz would like to announce that we are officially cutting our lobbying expenditures from $0 to $0 dollars, and expect to see our government contracts increase accordingly (do the math).
