Point taken, but has there ever been a period in American history when there wasn't a threat, either incipient or imminent? Harding's 'Ohio Gang' was, among other things, pilfering monies from Veteran's Affairs and from the Naval Oil Reserves--and those were, by all accounts, tip of the iceberg stuff. It would be hard to measure the longterm damage to national security caused by that kind of rampant corruption.
