The corrupt have significant resistance to fixing the corruption.
Corruption is increasing with each passing year... It is not decreasing. The only reasoning I can conjure up is that nobody gets convicted, especially if they are politically connected. The Donald and the Bush’s had no need for money... They were already wealthy.
The Clinton’s, Obama and Biden sold their souls to the devil to get their wealth and in doing so, they sold a lot of other souls to the devil as well. They created vast amounts of wealth for their supporters and nobody went to jail... Nobody.
Same thing here in Canada. Most of the politicians are in it for the money... Maybe they don’t all start out that way, but in the end... The money is there for the taking... So they take it and when they see former politicians who took it walking free... They feel free enough to do so knowing they will never face justice.
The more corruption permeates society... The more likely that society will eventually crumble because of it. The Roman empire didn’t ‘disappear’... It just ran out of money and the natural succession to a society with no money is anarchy or what they commonly refer to now as the ‘dark ages’. The dark ages are coming again... It’s just a matter of time. I won’t likely see it... It may even take another generation or two... But money will eventually mean nothing. When that happens... You better own some land and you better know how to handle farm animals and plant crops... Because that’s how you will survive when money becomes useless.
When those dark ages do come... There will be only one type of justice. Those with the food and the weapons will be in charge and dole out justice with force. Innocence will mean nothing.. Money will mean nothing... Brute force will rule everything.
