my first inclination is to choose media

natural gas is also a strong contender, but that is because i have been reading more about russia of late

in any case i am not sure about either

and so i will not choose just yet

Dongs and/or bongs

I would hand out free dong rips and bilbos, and lobby congress for approval to distribute them to conflict zones in the midde east, and also college campuses and single mothers. None would oppose me :grimb:

hmm, water would definitely give you the most leverage over everything, ever.

Gay porn. I would use the proceeds from its sale to pay Russian hackers to hack all US politicians computers and upload that gay porn on their computers. Then I would use black mail and threats to inform their wives, children and friends that they watch gay porn if they do not do exactly as I say. This way I will secure unlimited power.

you could definitely finance a campaign of political sabotage involving gay porn without needing to monopolize or otherwise involve yourself in the production and distribution of gay porn

you could invest in cgi / face swapping software, now that'd be lucrative sabotage

in the time it took to dispute the legitimacy of the footage, the reputation of whoever would likely be destroyed
