My working hypothesis is the Ground Zero to which I always return. Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely. Governments are not to be trusted.

Do you think it is the folks at the top of the elected government, or the folks who are always in "working for the government" who corrupt?

Agreed that corruption is a way of life for dictatorships...has there ever been one that would prove that wrong?
