Why all the focus on Federal and Global corruption?

Corruption starts at home.

Like the mayor of a small town who gets very expensive gifts from his cousin who just happens to be awarded the no-bid contract for road salt to the town at a very inflated price.

Or the county District Attorney who is a cokehead and a total slut, and is being blackmailed by her dealer - if I get busted, your name will be at the top of the list of my customers - so she gives him a blowjob every week when she goes to get her supply.
