Not in disbelief, but could you link me to a source detailing this bribery?

It wasn't Bribery, it was intense lobbying and campaign contributions. There's a subtle difference between them in America politics.

Let's be honest, they're the same thing, we just aren't able to to anything about it because the beneficiaries are the ones in power.

The laws clearly state it's not bribery. Just how it's not insider trading if Congress Persons act on information they received in the line of work.
