so because the republicans in DC do it, it is ok for Street and his cronies to rob the city blind? i guess it was a good thing that the Hispanics in Camden got to rob that city for awhile (because lord knows the average Camden citizen doesn't need good government) because they should get their fair share, too?
Yes, You are correct... to the victor go the spoils.
Pay-to-Play is an old Philadelphia Tradition, going back at least 200 years!
Washington has nothing to do with it. In fact, Washington learned everything it knows about Pay-to-Play from Philadelphia, Boston and New York City. (Chicago didn't exist yet, but it honed the process to a fine edge shortly after its establishment.)
Every few decades Philadelphian's get fed up with things and change partners. The last time that happened was in the 1950s. Philadelphia hasn't had a two-party system for 200 years. One party or the other has dominated the political landscape for 30-50 years at a time throughout its history.
