Where Corruption Breeds
May 18th, 2010 Posted in Obama
The National Post put out a graphic on ‘Just how corrupt is the United States?”, and the top three states all seem to have something in common.
States that are left wing win the contest by a wide margin. (click image to enlarge)
America may not be the most corrupt nation in the world, but on the Corruption Perception Index issued by an organization called Transparency International, the U.S. scored 19th from the top in 2009, barely trailing Britain and Japan, and just ahead of Barbados. (Canada is tied for eighth most honest with Iceland and Australia.)
If Texas could clean up its act, it would be a clean sweep of corruption for the left.

The chart would have made more sense if it showed the number as a percentage per 1000 of the population of each state … as it stands it is just like the AGW junk science , but what do you expect from reporters who have an agenda?

There is also a very strong correlation on this map between demographics and corruption…

Where is our Canadian Constitution, that seems to be missing. Our Civil Rights and Liberties, have been taking away from the people, especially in BC. Democracy and Freedom, is null and void. Have another look, Canada’s squeaky clean image is gone, in the eyes of the rest of the world. Many countries, now hold Canada in contempt, for reneging on greenhouse gas emissions. A shameful exhibition, is what that was. Through all my many years, I have watched Canada become a cesspool of corruption. Once corruption is allowed in, government ranks, it then filters down to every agency and service. Hence the class action against the CRA, some very nasty accusations there. Our once upon a time pride, in our RCMP, has faded away. Citizens don’t even want them, as an icon for Canada anymore. The belief is, we are living in a dictatorship. I had 3 brothers and a sister, who served during WW11. All our young Canadian boys, were blown to hell, so we wouldn’t have this kind of government. What a tragic waste of life.
