Opinionated - Is South Asia really more corrupt than USA?

[BananaRepublicUK]

In your opinion. Meh.

Each election cycles costs over 10 billion.

Not opinion. Fact!

So? It is only your opinion that it should not be that much.

Eh!

What the hell are you talking about now?

Is there a problem with an election cycle costing $10 billion? Or $50 billion? Or is it just your problem?

Dear god!

If I have to explain the consequence of that level of corruption - you are not ready to debate!!

Google why US politicians and fed allowed the rating agencies to run wild. And how it caused the global financial crash!!

Corrupt south Asian politicians can only hurt their own people. Corrupt western politicians hurt everyone!

First of all, please show how overall spending calculated for an election cycle means there is corruption. Then we will see how to jump from that to a global crash by US Ratings agencies, Federal Reserve or elections.

All countries have some level of corruption. The corrupt of Pakistan are however short sighted and willing to damage the interests of the country for chump change.

Mughal officials tried many times to bribe the British, it was near impossible. But it was easy to buy loyalty in the Sub continent. Thats how a mere 3k English soldiers defeated Siraj ud Daulas 60k army at Plassey.

No, you did not. You just ranted about paying taxes for benefits. Your only gripe is the degree of progressiveness of taxation, that is all, and not the same thing as forced wealth transfer. Fail.

Dude, I think you English comprehension needs to be improved.

It was not a 'rant' and this is a forced transfer of wealth as people have no choice but to pay it.

In essence working people on the lowest incomes are being forced, on the pain of going to jail, to pay tax on their meagre incomes, and then the government is giving some of it to multi-millionaires.

Huge wealth transfer to Tory party donors through PPE contracts - classic example.

Young people do not watch the BBC whilst the old only watch the BBC.

However, young pay the bbc tax whilst the old do not

That’s democratic tyranny for you!!
