Although we live in the "Best" democracy in the world and we think that every country should be a democracy, anything and everything can become corrupt. Indonesia is the worlds third largest democracy behind only India and the United States and is having massive problems with corruption. in my mind, although we may not see it on the surface all the time and certainly not everyone is guilty of such things, the United States has a large problem with corrupt or as some like to call it " lobbyist" push their own views with the money they have in their pocket.

I agree with you. If every country becomes a democracy things could become bad very fast, and everything could become corrupt. I believe the US is an extremely corrupt country and other countries can follow very easily. It really is extremely upsetting and in my views unsettling since I live here in this country. Land of the free, home of the brave my butt! If I had the money and the opportunities I would live somewhere else! Almost anywhere else really! This blog was right on point sir! Thanks for the great article and the great read!
