Can anyone think of an example where there is corruption, and people just join along with it?

Question

im writing an essay about how to handle corruption, one will be about a time in history people didnt give in, one will be about not doing anything about corruption (so basically giving in) and one will about joining the corruption. So i need to help thinking on a time in history of a movie or anything that portrays conjoining with the corruption.

Answer 1

Watch the movie "Serpico" it is about corruption in the New York City Police Department during the 60's-70's. It shows how the cops had to cover up for each other being corrupt or they faced being killed on the job by criminals or another corrupt cops. It is a true story. It is very well documented and shows how bad a city could be given the right people. I hope you can find the movie, it should be a great reference. Good Luck. I hope you do well on the essay.

Answer 2

Hillary Clinton.

Bankrupt in 2000 but able to lend her campaign $5 million last month.  And all this on a Senator's salary.

Answer 3

The Bilderberg group running the US govt; very corrupt indeed...but known to a majority of the public, NO. Many Americans are supporting corruption without their knowledge because we/they are constantly lied to by the govt and media.

Answer 4
