When I went back to Oberlin College in 1969 for my 5th year reunion, I asked one of the government professors I hadn't taken a course from about whether anyone was studying corruption.
Illinois was in the midst of the Parky Cullerton real estate assessment scandal.
His reply was that government needed corruption to grease the process.
It seemed like an unsatisfactory answer then and still does.
