Many people think that the corrupt countries are the third world countries such as Libya, Syria, Jordan, Thailand, Indonesia, the Phillipines where the term of sticky a handshake means passing an envelope filled with money. The corruption is widespread throughout all levels of the society. By giving $ 5 to a immigration agent, he will get you a visa as your entire the country without waiting in a long line.

In developed countries, corruption is way bigger that lobbyists are giving money under the disguise of campaign contribution which is then used for private needs. Just read what Christine O'Donnel did with the contribution she received. How about Sarah Palin? How about those criminals who were pardoned by Bill Clinton on his last hours of his Presidency. Let's call a spade a spade. GW Bush did not pardon Scooter Libby.

Several sets of teapers remember:
some actual capitalists want no regulations, no taxes, no unions cause it helps their business profit directly
others think the brown man is fleecing him monetarily so why pay taxes or have his guns taken away
yet others are just bible belt small town conservatives

all was made so easy in the age of Obama, a steep downturn, the internet, right wing talk radio and FOX talking points
