In my county up north, there were so many violations that the county was considered the most corrupt in the state. It took years to get it cleaned out and was just done so when there was so much criticism and someone was able to convince a local tv station to take notice that two of the commissioners decided not to run again. The state ordered an audit, the county refused, legal mumbo-jumbo, millions of dollars lost or spent on pet projects with kickbacks, it was unbelievable. It may seem like a little issue that involves paying a wife and a couple of her best friends to do something that many would do for free -- but it isn't. It starts out small, they find out what they can get away with, and then it GROWS.
