The things you named are all 100% illegal, 100% of the time. Businesses for the most part I’d say do not bribe, of course there are those who do but you can’t make such a huge generalization to connect legal businesses with the illegal scum you talked about. > Corporations, labour unions, governments, and other interests spent a record-setting 2.79 billion dollars last year in hopes of influencing policy, the group said. This marked a 7.7 percent, or 200-million-dollar, increase over 2006, also a bumper year for the influence industry.
