Heh. Yes I had noticed this. The problem with "Misc income (bribes)" would be mentioning "bribes" outright. Which then might have a propensity to reach the wrong persons. Confidentially of course. I expect it's more popular to find other, more politically favorable euphemistic ways to still declare and pay taxes even if the description is only marginally or technically correct.
Or to disguise the illegal activity as a "separate business". I insufficiently remember cases in Europe where "Consulting services" were provided. Consulting services would be an easy one. I'd say too easy by now, for a politician.
