That's the nice kind of corruption. For the nasty kind read http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/;kw=[3351,53763] to find out what Jefferson County has been going through...
Still a fascinating read though. Why doesn't the country just default on the debt? These seem like extenuating circumstances.
Shouldn't there be a law that if a bank uses corrupt means to obtain business then the people who end up with the debt should have the right to walk away from it (after due process, of course).
