A. Yes, it is a considered a problem internationally. The country was a closed communist country for a long time and has a history of human rights violations and control of information to the people. I'm in the US, but that's what I understand about China from here. Not a political scientist, though.

Example: Do we as citizens allow the government to be corrupt by looking the other way? Any historical examples that proves this? 2. How has political corruption affected or influenced society? 3. What groups of people have historically been most affected by political corruption? Thanks!

A. George Bush and Barack Obama have ignored deficit spending. And we do look the other way, at least most of us. Political corruption becomes stronger with every chance it gets. In our society, it is generally accepted that extortion and payoffs occur with labor unions as we can all see. Labor Unions have significant power as they keep free markets from operating under normal price regulations. The nazis were pretty corrupt. America is getting pretty corrupt, and I think most country has its own fair share.

A. The lack of congressional oversight regarding Obama's czars will ultimately result in a chilling effect on Presidential aides and how they are approved. This may have unintended consequences, but clearly Obama is associating with many scoundrels that are not becoming of the POTUS.

How much of the US debt is due to fraud, corruption and political bribery?
Q. There is no question about whether we have debt or a deficit but how much of it was created by fraud, corruption and political bribery? Our government is audited by the government. What are the chances of turning themselves in? Obama stated he is going to fund the part of his health care bill with the 600 billion dollars of inefficiencies, fraud, and corruption already in the system. If he knows their is inefficiencies, fraud and corruption...can't you and shouldn't you correct that regardless if the bill gets passed? Do you think some other independent entity audit our government?

Unfortunately those who buy congressmen are the ones who are paying to keep that from happening. "Wow, our tax dollars going to elect Congress!"!?!... How much better is it for taxpayers to own their congressmen rather than to auction them off to the highest bidder??? Fix that and that will solve most of the other corruption problems

A. One example I can think of is that the Legions were at a time mobilized against other Roman factions instead of a common enemy. For example. One emporer (forgot which) recalled most forces from Britain to come back to Rome in case he needed to wage civil war for his own personal gain. The later in the empire, the more this kind of stuff happened.

A.

Perfect example...Barack Obama drafted over 7 billion in kickbacks to unions through the recovery bill...aka Apprenticeship Utilization Requirements...which means any construction contract with Recovery dollars has to have 15% of the money spent at the local union in the form of hired labor or dues...regardless of whether or not the winning contractor is a union contractor.

Is Political Corruption the greatest threat to Indian democracy?
Q. how can we tackle this problem?
Asked by pavy - Mon Oct 20 13:30:14 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Yes. Political Corruption is the greatest threat to our nation and its democracy. People dare to do anything and everything just for money. The criminals don't get punished, the non eligible gets better education, job and better life. To put an end to this, "DON'T vote the candidate who spends a lot during election campaingn". It is a simple math, a person who spends a lot tries to take back the money when he gets back to power in a very short period of time. So a person who doesn't spend a lot but just goes by the promises that he/she makes takes less or no money. There's basically nothing for him to loose. So let's start it from this coming elections and put an end to all these.

Should political corruption be considered an offense along the lines of terrorism?
Q. I believe that political corruption in America has gone way too far. I believe that we have to deal with corrupt politicians as we do terrorists. Terrorists destroy our country from the outside and corruption destroys our country from the inside. Who's with me? Not anarchy. I merely think corrupt politicians should be tried as terrorists. I know the difference. The two are very different but I think they should be tried as terrorists or war criminals to send a message to the corrupt that we will not put up with them any more.
