That someone actually caught this considering Virginia's lack of laws in this regard is interesting. Virginia I think relies a lot on the single term governor limitation to reduce corruption at the very top. Guess it's time for them to reconsider…
It is not by coincidence that Virginia adjoins Washington DC.
that isn't exactly what I meant…I should try thinking before I write…I mean the predisposition to corruption in Virginia is directly associated with its proximity to Washington.
I disagree. Louisiana isn't anywhere close to DC, and it's much worse.
And lately most of the VA state level corruption seems to have little to do with DC politics.
I take your point. It is a little like stirring up a barrel of rattlesnakes to find a copperhead. Hard to tell the slithery little creatures apart.
I guess, what I'm referring to, PR, is the growth of the security industry around DC. I read somewhere the five fastest growing counties in the U.S. were (at that time) surrounding DC, and the bulk of that growth was in security (both high and low tech), robotics, IT, communications, and industries associated with fulfilling the TIA (Total Information Awareness) agenda.
I am convinced, the level of corruption in those environs is prodigious. As you suggest, though, I certainly don't mean to diminish the skills of the locals when it come to graft and mendacity.
Hawaii is as far as you can get in this country – yet they manage a very high level of corruption too.
Yeah, yeah, we know. Except for your brave little Republican mom who stands up to all those corrupt Ds which is why those of us who refuse to vote for any Rs period are unfair meanies. Have a nice weekend, David. Hi to your GOP mom.
