Corruption carries on.(Inside Track)(Brief article)
Transparency International, the global coalition against corruption, reported in its "Global Corruption Barometer 2007" that the "general public continues to view parliaments and political parties as the institutions most tainted by corruption around the world, while the direct experience of those polled points to highest levels of bribery in the police and the judiciary." The poll found that the poor of countries suffer the most from corruption: "Corruption acts as a regressive tax that increases income inequality."
