Fees or bribes, which are better?
Being snowed in on Vancouver Island with nothing better to do I thought I would share my idle thoughts the people who surf this forum.
If you were going to attempt to get approval to start a business or perform some service in an existing business which would you prefer, dealing with your own government offices and their fee system or dealing one on one with the bureaucrats in most African countries with their bribe system?
Oh... for me it is no contest...give me an African bureaucrat any day.
