Brazil even though is western country is among the top dogs of corruption. We make that a way of living in all stances of society and government.

I think when people say western, they generally mean western Europe and North America.

Its difficult to avoid corruption in emerging markets, it takes a while for governance to catch up, sometimes it never does or will.  Russia for instance.

Dunno about the western being only europe and USA, but don't matter... in Brazil our government is usually making laws that will need the businessman to corrupt officers to stay alive. They don't fight corruption, they enable it.

The more money and freedom, the more corruption. Thankfully the connection people have with social media is bringing up people's BS a lot quicker now.

Are you crazy man? Most dictatorship and the like had astronomical corruption entangled on them. Free countries with low government intervention are less prone to corruption exactly because they don't have great power to influence the country economy and make it worth to corromp.
