Elroy,
There is a lot of bribery going on all over the place, both here and elsewhere. Even little hometown politicians now know how to open an offshore account.

Give me a source of funds in some place, say the Philippines, and I can safely give it to most anybody I want, provided the beneficiary follows some instructions, such as opening a bank account in a third country of my choice and unless something really extraordinary happens, I will never need to loose a moments sleep worrying about disclosure.

Of course there is some risk in getting the funds out of the US in the first place. But if the source of funds is locally generated, like from some business operations in the Philippines, that is not a problem. And there are hundreds of places around the world like that where it is darn near impossible for US investigators to get access to incriminating evidence, not just the Philippines. And this works the same way for any foreign nationals, not just folks from the US.

I really think this sort of action is behind lots of the really strange things that go on in the world today. And it ain't just Haliburton doing this either. <g>
