> America ranks low in corruption? How are you quantifying that? There's the Corruption Perceptions Index: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index In the 2016 version, the USA ranks 18th out of 176 countries, with 74 out of 100 points (higher is less corrupt, best actual score by any country is 90). If you accept this index (and don't assume things have changed dramatically since the 2016 poll), then it's fair to say that America does rank low in corruption.
