| One person's perception of corruption is another person's sense of loyalty. |

That's what we're dealing with. Community leaders and elected officials who have thrown the rules out the window because they've convinced themselves that it's in the community's best interest to drive business, no matter whose rights they run over. In fact, when you add crooked lawyers and City Managers to the formula, it gets real interesting. Suddenly you have leaders who have a Calvinist approach. They think that little people are irrelevant. Then it really gets ugly. It turns American concepts upside down when they begin to corrupt neighborhoods by inducing the greediest and the most ambitious to undermine their own neighbors and destroy their own communities.
When that happens, you got to ask yourself. How has this been allowed to take hold in America?
