What percentage of governements are corrupt? - Sir - 10-23-2013
In your own opinion what percentage of overall governments are corrupt.
All governments have some level of corruption, but I was curious as to what percentage of governmental officials are corrupt, personally I believe it is 80%+

Well that information can always be tampered with, I wouldn't trust it at all tbh.
By corruptionI meant violating your oaths, accepting bribes, anything unlawful, or unethical.

Well, I can come up with a few cases in Finland, where a single politician said something dumb... on the top the case where one said that the bible should go above all laws. But I can't think of any where the government went back on any promises/violated our rights... which is why Finland doesn't do anything in politics...
so would that case count as corruption?
And, I would say that the data there could be trusted, since you can see some countries with quite "clean" governments down on the scale... Anyway, that's just the conclusion I've come to

In U.S it's not much lower than 100%. People get into politics here for power, and to get more power they will break the rules.

100%. I'm not sure if that was something I had to consider.

Truth.
Honestly, it depends on where in the world you are really. I'd say about 80% of all gov'ts are corrupted in some way.

I would say 19.39% as it seems I have recently lost my tin foil hat.
