Our sense of integrity and morality have been compromised. What used to be shocking or outrageous are now happenstance occurences. Our financial system is geared towards manipulative behavior and seld serving gain.  Our way methods of accounting are dynamic in nature. One company has one method that suits their own needs and another adopts another method to suit their own books.

Lawyers have become experts at twisting the law for their clients benefit and of course their own monetary gain. While all are not compromised to begin with, the simple nature of competitive business dictates that one must delve into grey areas to be "succesful".

Our politicians must cower and partner with persons and organizationd due to the exhorbative amount of money needed to pay for a campaign. This by default forces them to compromise integrity and morals. They have to do these things to flourish and to be elected. If these things are needed to get elected, imagine what they must do to get anything done in government. THIS IS CORRUPT!

Our political system is breeding corruption. When we have a bill presented to Congress or to the House, our lawmakers tend to want to bicker via bipartisanship, or hold the bill hostage to get widgets created for their own respective states.

This practice of "Pork-Barrel Economics" breeds corruption by design. Our forefathers used this, but had integrity and morality as their basis. That is not the primary trait that is being exhibited by our elected officials today. They are forced to work in the "Good-Ole-Boy Network".

Let's put the "Good-Ole-Boy Network"  to pasture.
