Thanks to the Wikileaks effect of the internet (rapid info declassification + sharing) more corruption is able to be exposed, and the scale is shocking and enormous. The hardest part is then trying to change a known-to-be-corrupt system, when those who write the rules always do so in their favour. Here in Australia we have slid into the bottom 10 percent of global corruption index [0] Politicians, lawyers, accountants, and realestate agents have conspired to repeatedly prevent AML from being introduced to Australia since 2002. Whistleblowers get threatened with life-destroying jail terms. Politicians "retire" then take up cushy directorships with numerous companies they previously wrote seemingly treasonous laws for (dozens of slap-in-the-face-blatant corruption yet it continues on with impunity or any punishment except for maybe losing an election or a gravy train contract).
