Good to see California ranked as one of the least corrupt. Right-wingers may hate it, but it's true.
Have only read the first 30, so I apologize if I'm repeating something.
NJ among the least? Surely they jest! I agree with those who question why Illiniois isn't in the top 5. Just last night, DH and I were discussing the Ill. primary. (We used to live in IL.) I said I thought Santorum might win there, b/c he's a crook, bilked that school district in PA out of all that money. Upon reflection, I said maybe it wasn't a big enough scame, only $100,000.
I'm endlessly amazed by the ability of conservatives to twist and turn every news story inside out, always insisting that there's a hidden meaning, agenda, or conspiracy. I have to congratulate you for your creativity.
Suggesting a state that has more anti corruption laws because they are more corrupt is flawed why? What usually happens in the aftermath of a big scandal? They tighten the laws up.
I have been around the block a few times and I have never figured out how to bribe a government official except with a huge campaign contribution. I was just wondering how to do it.

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.
Then move if you don't like it.
What are you complaining to me for? I don't care about Illinois one way or the other.

In other words...the "study" is a bunch of BS.
