Disrespect and corruption will exist as long as human ambition exists. I don't believe humans are necessarily always evil. I believe that they are largely malleable in their goodness and evilness. It is not unique to democracy as is demonstrated every day in places like China or India. I didn't say that democracy is the only type of government that foster corruption. I did say that democracy help fosters corruption. What people don't get is politicians are a perfect reflection of society. For better or worse. Do you believe in the idea of incentive? If so, incentive can determine what kind of politicians we elect. If the incentive is bad, we'll elect bad one. If the incentive is good, we'll elect good one. I believe democracy, as we westerners practice it, leads us to politicians who are often corrupt.
