You really typed that without even an ounce of self-awareness?
Enforcing the law is generally not something people refer to as corruption.
Just because a law exists, doesn't make it good. Even getting good laws made these days in the first place often requires lobbying, under-the-table deals and such.
Or just look at ICE. Tell me exactly how are they not corrupt.
You really wrote that without an ounce of understanding what "corruption" means. Not enforcing EU directives would be called corruption by the EU goons, member states are fined when they disobey and its primarily the RIAA based in the US that makes all the fuss about DRM and IP so who are you wagging the finger to? It's American financial interests being enforced but a country is supposedly corrupt for not trying to be some kind of IP law rogue? Inside the EU? The current Greek government is rabidly pro-west, pro-EU and pro-NATO so if being the most obedient to the overlords is corrupt then what is the uncorrupt alternative here exactly?
There isn't one. It's just the usual yuropian chauvinist garbage about every other place that isn't western Europe being inherently inferior. All of southern Europe is "corrupt" instead of "the EU is basically the German Union" just like "Africans are having too many kids" instead of "neo-colonialism is real".
