      @geoffreyyork Question to citizens: Have you ever benefitted from money acquired through curruption? It about corruption in society.

      @calestous do you think corruption is good for a society & an economy? Most studies show it isn't. Even if people grudgingly accept it.

      @geoffreyyork That is not my point. I am getting at it being endemic, not just in government

      @geoffreyyork Citizens tend to be in denial about corruption by shifting blame to the top. The tip of an iceberg sits on deep base.

      @calestous Yes. But leadership has to start at the top, no?

      @geoffreyyork Leadership rises to the top from the bottom. That is where it rehearses its thieving ways.
