Bribery Breakdown

While on the topic of political corruption, here's an article I just came across in The Economist about corruption in Afghanistan. If you plan on heading there for spring break plan your bribery budget accordingly...



The article said at least 60% of Afghans have recently resorted to bribery. I expected to see judges and police officers up there but cannot help but be somewhat disturbed by the fact that doctors and nurses are more frequently bribed than customs officers, members of parliament and the army.
