    Some minor formatting issues. I noticed that none of the cases ended up with someone being arrested, which seems odd. Are they being protected somehow? Are those who are supposed to provide oversight worthless or corrupt themselves?

      Yeah, sorry about the formatting, I didn’t feel like dealing with it when I transferred the data over from ChatGPT.

      Bribery, when done intelligently, can be extremely difficult to prove in court.

      Many of the accused (on both sides of the transaction) have power, connections, and reputations to uphold. I don’t think it’s too conspiratorial to suggest that the US legal system delivers judgements, let’s say, “inconsistently”, based on factors such as the aforementioned.

      Same as it ever was.
