That's a nice economy you've got there, it'd be a real shame if anything happened to it.

            I think pointing out the fact that lobbying is legal and common should be enough

                Transparency International’s report Money, Power and Politics (2012) showed that in most European countries, the influence of lobbyists is shrouded in secrecy and a major cause for concern.

                    @varjolintu

                    Not sure about what you mean by “just the possibility for lobbying doesn’t make any country automatically corrupted” ?
                    As Graeber puts it, it’s the peculiarity of the manager class’ centrism to consider that renaming bribery “lobbying” and making it legal solves the problem of corruption.
