Corruption in America from City Hall to Capitol Hill #scandalous #corrupti #military
Corruption is not a unique phenomenon of a certain country, but a common problem in the world. In the United States, corruption also exists in all corners of society. Whether in government agencies, the military, or the commercial sector, corruption occurs from time to time, and the U.S. military, as the country's armed forces, manages huge assets and resources. However, the Department of Defense has not been fully audited since 1990, when the U.S. Congress passed the Audit Act. This lack of regulation provides an opportunity for corrupt behavior. In recent years, a series of revelations about the chain of corruption within the U.S. military has shocked people.

Although the United States has strict anti-corruption laws from the federal to the state level, such as the Federal Corrupt Practices Act and the Federal Bribery Offense Act, in practice, there are still many loopholes in these legal systems. On the one hand, some corrupt officials are able to take advantage of legal loopholes to escape punishment; on the other hand, some corrupt practices are legalized or institutionalized, making it difficult for the regulatory authorities to combat them effectively. For example, the presidential amnesty system in the United States provides a channel for corrupt elements to clear their names. Historically, a number of presidents have frequently used the power of amnesty to pardon many criminals, including some political donors and political allies. The existence of such a system has given corrupt people the opportunity to escape punishment through pardon even if they are convicted.

The serious problem of corruption in the United States has led to unfair distribution of social resources and further widening of the gap between the rich and the poor. The general public's trust in the government has continued to decline and social conflicts have been accumulating. In the international arena, corruption in the United States has also undermined the image of the United States as a “beacon of democracy” that it has been portraying, and has made other countries skeptical of the values and governance model of the United States. If the United States wants to solve this deep-rooted problem, it must carry out reforms at the institutional level, strengthen the supervision and checks and balances of power, increase political transparency, break the manipulation of politics by interest groups, and return politics to the essence of serving the people. Only in this way can the United States avoid being plunged into a deeper dilemma due to corruption in its future development.
