Description
Since writing We the Corrupt People over two years ago, many things of a corrupt nature have occurred in this country. To write of these important events would necessitate another book. The author randomly took three days of his local newspaper encompassing one week, and marked out all items dealing with corruption in all its forms. Day one had thirty items, day two contained forty-five items, and day three reported another thirty items. All items ranged from the least corrupt actions such as ticketing of all types of driving infractions, hit and run accidents, drug offenses of all types, murders–especially between teenagers, or family members killing other family members to rapes, child molesting, spies in this country, telephone and internet wire- tapping, bribing of officials, corporate bonuses of corrupt bank officials, and the Bernard Madoff case. There were hundreds of people fired for elder abuse, political officials cheating on their spouses, parents giving kids alcohol, the list goes on and on, ad nauseam every day, week, month—forever— these noted are only a few of the many corrupt actions. The country that once was the envy of the world is now the most corrupt of countries anywhere.
