Howard Hughes, 1905- 1976, "bought politicians, but never voted. He railed bitterly against taxes, but paid none at all for seventeen consecutive years. His empire produced strategic weapons of the nuclear age, but he fought atomic testing in his own backyard. He tried to buy the government of the United States, but instead helped to bring it down.” How Watergate was inspired by Nixon's desire to disclose that Lawrence O'Brien, Chairman of the Democratic Party, took bribes the way he did.
