Same goes for Australia, there's a high level of corruption in the form of donations to politicians.

- chii 14y agoTheres no way to avoid the sort of "corruption" that you speak of - when an individual (or entity) has money, it can be translated to power thru the use of it. The difference is that at least donations are (supposed to be?) listed and tracable, and can be scrutinized if necessary. Compare it with the sort of corruptino you find in countries like india, and china, where you _have_ to give money to the official to get your paper signed to do somethign that ordinarily you should'nt have to (e.g., may be you'd like to open a car import/export business. you'd be paying quite a few visites to gov't officials with expensive gifts or unmarked bills).
