Good to see California ranked as one of the least corrupt. Right-wingers may hate it, but it's true.
wow really? I took a look at what they actually rate the corruption on, and most of the issues politicians should not even be involved in the 1st place.
in that light, the ratings should be reversed and new jersey is the worst corrupted state.
I knew the most butthurt right wingers would respond quickly. Knew exactly what they'd say too. Too damn predictable.
Especially the part about Illinois not being in the top 5. That's causing some serious apoplexy and popping of pills on the part of Conservatives.
Right... how many Illinois governors are in/have been in prison now? I live here, so I deal with the corruption daily. You know, like when the federal tax drops, they just raise the state tax?
Not a conservative either. Looks like you need to learn about different opinions and how they will not always be the same as yours.
I cannot take that list seriously. Our past TWO governors are currently both in jail on corruption charges and Illinois doesn't even make the top 5? Seriously, that list is whacked.
