6. If you live in Boston and you claim that corruption isn't a problem .. then ...
you ain't lookin around hard enough.

And things are getting worse. Much worse. Projects get green lit for "connected" developers all the time. Eminent domain has been implemented to take private property at a pittance for another private developer. How do you think that happens except by bribing.

I don't suppose you notice how corporations get huge tax abatements or refunds or holidays. Do you honestly think bribes aren't a part of that.

What about the revolving door between regulatory agencies and corporations like in the FDA, EPA, SEC, DoJ, DoD. etc. Do you honestly think that shit ain't a bribe.

C'mon, use that brain for more than hair fertilizer. :dunce:
