Corruption in the USA


This book is really daring at exposing the highest form of "legalized" corruption in the USA.
Big Corporations donate big sum to fund the election campaign of certain corruptible politician. Lots of $$ in the campaign fund means more publicity and hence lead to more votes.
After being voted into the government office, these politicians will lobby, propose and pass law favoring to the Big Corporations which will save them millions or even billions of $$ in reducing their corporate responsibility to the country, community, humanity.
The book also expose open lies and empty promises of many politicians after they are elected. While they are in the office, they have work in favor of the Big Corporations, and they career as lobbyist for them are ensured after they leave the office.

It is very scary after reading this book... although our country have our own corruption issues, but I personally think that the USA political corruption is much more cleverer that ours (ours the method and ways are too primitive... maybe we are too "primitive" to challenge them?). Really "Salute" to both.

Pek, you know what, I am pretty sure Malaysia has the same corruptions, probably even worse. Just no one dare to speak out. Worst so, all politicians or their family members own major companies in Malaysia. All decision made favour their companies, like construction development etc.

In America, you will not be put into prison for writing book like this. In Malaysia though, you will sure!

Hi Shirly,
Yup... I agree... thats why in America, the Big Corporations are doing it "Legaly" while in Malaysia, they are so "careless" because our country it not as liberal as USA for us to challenge those corruptors.
