The United States, the most advanced country in
the world, has an incredibly corrupt government.

I don't believe that at all. How do you measure "corruption?" IMO most public employees are extraordinarily law-abiding. I've known thousands of professors at public universities handling budgets of billions of dollars. I've known (of) two who were convicted of embezzlement (or the equivalent)-- close calls from what I heard. Of millions of government employees a few hundred are convicted of corruption in a year. More lawyers steal from trust funds in a year than that.
