Greed and politics

Image
We already knew that bankers had been greedy and sometimes thieves. Well, we now learn through the expenses scandal uncovered by The Telegraph, that politicians have been as much greedy. Indeed, British members of parliaments have used expenses claims to make up huge salaries at the expense of the taxpayers. The difference between bankers and MPs is that bankers could blame an inadequate and inefficient regulation whereas MPs can't pass on the blame to anybody because they make up the rules that they live with. Shoking! An example of cover-up in video
