Heh Heh Heh I guess you're not really considering that allowing or encouraging corruption internally can also kill a government? Note that China has been through multiple "purges" of corrupt officials. (Strangely, it seems to happen whenever they have a new leader who needs to remove competitors. ;)) So the corruption potential seems to be present everywhere. It's just that in the west we've (thus far) recognised the problem, and journalists are part of that solution. Removing that solution due to fear seems to be a bad direction for long term survival as well.
