Corruption is often at ordspråk

en Corruption is often at the very root of why governments don't work. It weakens the systems and distorts the markets.

en The retailers of the world basically said, why aren't we treated in the same fashion? State governments are getting sales tax. Local governments are getting sales tax. Local governments are getting meals and lodging taxes. And all of that is a derivative of our investment in their community.

en Governments, like clocks, go from the motion men give them, and as governments are made and moved by men, so by them they are ruined too. Wherefore governments rather depend upon men than men upon governments. Let men be good, and the government cannot be bad; if it be ill, they will cure it. But, if men be bad, let the government be ever so good, they will endeavor to warp and spoil it to their turn.

en George Bush's charm offensive did work. It was aimed at governments and he did well at that level - that is important because foreign policy is decided by governments, not by public opinion. He did talk up the EU and they did shift slightly on Iran and the Middle East.
