Legalizing corruption. But will that mean if I am not corrupt, I would be penalised? or jailed even? Nice list. Legalizing corruption. But will that mean if I am not corrupt, I would be penalised? or jailed even?

Would there be a corruption speed lane and a corruption slwer lane, like on motorways? And wouldnt you have to spend money in enforcing the law, thereby leading to heavier taxes and heavier bills and expenditure of the government. On another level, what if the people who are not corrupt now, wouldnt they be corrupt once the law is enacted. After all, they are doing something that the law doesnt allow. They are not corrupt, while the law says corruption is ok. Isn't it a paradox? Am I confused? (But I do agree that legalizing will remove it more or less) And if corruption were legalized, would you have a law that says how much of corruption is withing the limit.

Or probably it's the way privatization is done here.Yeah, we do see a beautiful face to welcome us , instead of a "babu" , but the quality of service and other improvements which we expect from such private organizations are nowhere.And in many cases it becomes a monopoly of a single compnay instead of monopoly of state,for e.g., "Akash" channel in Chhatisgarh(it's closed now after BJP came into power).Agreed,these companies don't take bribes from people normally, but they use other methods to have consumer's money.And who knows if they have the authority, they won't misuse it.
