15. And even on Jefferson we're not getting the whole story
"Baksheesh" is essential for accomplishing anything in many places in the world. Even in the US. The Florida interstate access ramp scandal may have hit the news primarily because an Alaskan pol got an apparent quid-pro-quo "political contribution", not a Florida pol.
Is Jefferson accused of taking or misdirecting public funds? Or was Jefferson a conduit for corporate bribes that are an ordinary and necessary part of business with foreign bureaucrats?
