What does the second act have to do with corruption or information that is useful for the public?
- JacobThreeThree 4y agoWhen a government official doesn't abide by his own lockdown rules, that's corruption.
- themitigating 4y agowhy? If a politician votes for a law that reduces the speed limit to 50mph then is caught speeding is that corruption? I think corruption is when someone abuses their position of power. This isn't abuse they just violated their own rules.
- LawTalkingGuy 4y agoIt's corruption because they know they won't be punished. If more laws were objective (like speeding) and politicians were as surveilled as everyone else it wouldn't be an issue.
- themitigating 4y agoYou're misusing the word objective and corruption is an abuse of power not hypocrisy. Also speeding is a bad example since the cops let people off all the time
- LawTalkingGuy 4y agoIt is an abuse of power when they support laws they know they won't be charged with even if caught. The hypocrisy is also annoying, but not the main problem. > Also speeding is a bad example since the cops let people off all the time That's why I said "and surveilled".
- blitzar 4y agoIf a lawmaker creates a law to make something illegal, sends police to prosecute the population doing said thing, affirms that arresting people for having a cup of coffee is absolutely the intention of writing the law - that is perfectly reasonable. If at the same time they are breaking the law they created - that is corruption. For the people prosecuted for said crime with trials pending, it is information that is useful for them to know that the lawmaker conducted themselves in this manner.
