Think bigger than what you see on the news please.

What you're describing is low level corruption. Now consider how many construction projects and government services are being 'outsourced' or 'privatized' and take wild guess how much money is ending up in the wrong pockets at that game. Not to mention the lack of quality control and general oversight that often comes along with it.

That's much worse than some traffic cops taking a cut or bribe. Which is also bad. But first the major corruption should be dealt with.
