Bribes need to increase proportionate to salary to maintain the same risk/reward calculation.
Famously, Singapore maintains a very effective, clean civil service by paying market rates, and sometimes for some ministers that is actually millions of dollars a year.
- onlyrealcuzzo 4y agoOkay, but are they choosing these people at random? Your worth should be based on your skills (meritocracy) - not by winning the lottery and how much people will pay to influence you (luck).
- noasaservice 4y ago> Your worth should be based on your skills (meritocracy) And with deciding "merit" are the kingmakers, or the "meritmakers". Congratulations. You now have created a new class of people who can take bribes and subvert leadership under the term "merit". And, explain how one would calculate "merit"? In my experiences, meritocracies are monocultures that put forth their own biases as "merit".
