    There is money at all levels... And so there are of course particularly good commissioned writers, called noble pens, who write wonderful stories - for example about clean, cheap nuclear energy, etc. and who are paid exceptionally well for these modern fairy tales. But the most expensive figures in this system of corruption are of course the "oh-so-serious" politicians, as long as they...
