I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong idea. I don't intend to claim that corruption comes from capitalism. There's corruption in most every kind of formalized societal makeup. It's part of man's basic self-interest. What I did not explicitly state is that we claim our society is less corrupt than others, when in fact the corruption is instead focused at the top, rather than spread more evenly throughout society. While our cops are generally, I would argue, less likely to take a bribe than in some other countries, our politicians are no less so.
