Long time readers will know that the best return on investment (ROI for you wonky types) in America is lobbying dollars.  For a pittance you can purchase present your case to a Congressman or woman and generate multitudes of that same dollar spent in return.  It appears Federal Reserve and Treasury officials are also on sale (aisles 7 and 10 respectively) so hurry on in, but only those with annual revenue of $500M+ allowed in on the bidding! Our financial oligarchs are top dogs at playing the game but it's across all major industries.
