Answer 3

On a scale from 1, least corrupt, to 10, most corrupt, I would give the US government a 12. Despite the many officials dedicated to trying to make it all work as though we have a government of the People, by the People, and for the People, the truth is that the American government is neither a representative democracy nor a constitutional republic, nor has it been for over a hundred years..

The current administration and its hand-picked judiciary have taken advantage of this--but every administration for more than 100 years has over-stepped its powers, while maintaining the illusion that the American government is a sovereign & Constitutional republic.  This is evidence of a systemic corruption that extends far deeper than the reach of any one official.  In fact, it doesn't matter who is "corrupt" and who isn't, because the government itself is not what it purports to be.

The American government is a corporation, incorporated in London  in 1871.  A corporation is defined as a legal fiction intended to protect its owners and their assets from liability for their acts and decisions, or those of their actors and agents, in the operation of the corporation.  A corporation's sole legal responsibility is to produce the greatest amount of profit possible for those owners.

Contrast that against the purposes declared for a sovereign government in the Declaration of Independence and the powers and responsibilities enumerated in the Constitution for the united States of America.  

Because a corporation is a legal fiction created to shield its owners from liability, by definition NO corporation--even though it is comprised of offices and positions with names nearly identical to those found in a sovereign constitutional republic, even though it holds elections very similar in process to those that an independent nation uses to staff those positions, and even though it employs armed forces and distributes legal tender and legislates regulations and statutes into existence--NO corporation can be sovereign, nor govern a free people.  To be governed by a corporation is by definition to be indentured or enslaved--to be owned.

The Civil War did not start over slavery, and it did not end it.  The Civil War began over a currency crisis started by the Bank of New Orleans and its refusal to follow federal law.  

By the same token, Lincoln was not assassinated because he freed the slaves, he was shot because these united States were operating as a conquered territory under Emergency War Powers assumed by Lincoln as Commander-in-Chief.  The Congress had not yet been constitutionally reformed.  This was a moment anticipated by the international banking cartel.  For a short time, the power to legally rule America without the interference of its carefully-constructed Constitution was vested in one man.  Lincoln held a deep conviction to reform the Union constitutionally,  but if he died before completing this process, then that same power would be vested someone who might bend to the cartel's considerable powers of persuasion.  And that is exactly what happened.

Until we rise above the contradictory legalese & understand the presumed consent to unconscionable contracts that is imposed on us from cradle to grave, then the American govt will continue to hold in trust under bankruptcy receivership the perfected title to every US citizen, to all of our property, to all of the goods that we produce, and to all the generations of children that follow us.  They will continue to lease our bodies and the fruits of our labors back to us for a fee (plus compound interest) that is increased exponentially by our attempts to pay it, while lying to us about their purpose, practices, and loyalties in order to gain our consent and cooperation to enslave us.

Re: the '08 national election:  which candidate will be able to navigate the available political process to return us to solvency and sovereignty?  Can McCain, or Obama, or even Hillary or Rudy G stand up and lead us away from corruption?  As the old adage goes, how deep do you have to dig a hole to get to the Moon?

Answer 4

I think people try all the time, some are successful and most get caught. So maybe 4.

This form of government has checks and balances, meant to keep corruption from taking hold.

A difference in political beliefs does not equal corruption.

Answer 5

On a scale of 1 to 10, i'd say 5.25. moderately corrupt.

Answer 6

Corrupt as h**l. It represents its constituents. We have become a government for the corporations by the corporations. We are granted the illusion of democracy from our corporate masters.  Its far past time to clean it all up.

Answer 7

On a scale to 1-10, I'd give it a 8.5.

Both parties are influenced by special interests, lobbyists buy out politicians, corporations are controlling the government, bankers walk in and out everyday to DC to influence their agendas, and the military industrial complex is getting stronger day by day.

Answer 8

Corrupt? Yeah sure, but then again, it has been like that for some time.

Answer 9

On a scale from 1 - 10, I'd say 8.25.

Answer 10

I think institutionally, it's minorly corrupt.  There's a few corrupt members of Congress.  The current administration is utterly corrupt.
