- ihumanable 3y agoThat's a great way to put it. I'm always amazed at how small the bribes can be. When I hear stories with some quote similar to "then the senator granted them the mining rights to an $800M mine on public lands for a 3-night stay at Sandals." I'm mad about the corruption, but I'm also mad at the politician for being dog shit at realizing how large their bribe should be.
