- The bigger problem is that corrupt people are roaming free. Old and archaic laws ensure that the corrupt gets free from the clutches of law.
- Moreover, corrupt people in any system does not let honest people work. This results in motivation levels of honest people also going down.
- If somebody talks about corruption at a party, he is labeled frustrated honest who cannot deal with the reality of corrupt society. He is considered an alien and the issues raised are considered out of date and context.
