It Appears That the US Government Is Totally Corrupt
PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS • MAY 10, 2023 • 300 WORDS
 
“It doesn’t make much sense to investigate the guy who brings you the allegation rather than the allegation.” — Former Federal Prosecutor Bud Cummins

On October 4, 2018, Bud Cummins brought evidence to the attention of US Attorney Geoff Berman of criminal behavior by Vice President Joe Biden. Instead of investigating Biden, Berman investigated Cummins. This is the Department of Justice today. The DOJ is just as corrupt as the FBI, which is part of DOJ, the CIA, NSA, FDA, and all the rest. Try to find an honest federal agency or institution.

If you don’t believe the FBI is corrupt, consider the Hunter Biden laptop. The information on the laptop revealing clear criminal behavior has been known for years, and nothing has been done about it. The corrupt FBI even declared the laptop to be a Russian plant in an effort to influence a US election. Really.

Yep… completely and irretrievably corrupt.  And it’s not just the government… most of every aspect of this country is rife with corruption.

Agreed. It used to be neighbors helping one another and a handshake between two people was all that was needed for an agreement to be honored.  A person's word and integrity actually meant something that could be counted on.

Those times have changed, moral decay, lack of integrity and tossing God aside have changed what made this country great.

I trust no one.

Government is not corrupt.  The people in it are corrupt.

Blaming institutions lets individuals off the hook too easily.

Sadly, that appears to be very true. And the very worst part - and the reason nothing will be done about any of it - is because they are ALL in on it.

This war in the Ukraine is, at base, nothing more than a mechanism to drain public $$$ into private pockets.

But a lot of  the corrupt individuals all seem to gravitate toward the same place. They become the face of the institution.

But in government is where people go  who have no useful abilities but they can screw up and not be held accountable

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
