Former House Speaker John Boehner is one of politicians who cash in after leaving office. In Boehner’s case, he opposed all efforts to legalize cannabis while he was in Congress, then promptly went into business as a pro-marijuana lobbyist, earning millions pushing for legalized pot around the country.
