Highly paid people are still corrupt in Liberia. Just take a look around and see all the ministers and their "underlings" who demand bribes. Don't look at the Liberian legislature because that's just plain ridicules.

Bribery and corruption are curtailed when they are meaningful negative consequences to receiving same or positive reinforcement for not do so. (Pavlov's dog)

What I can not get is how long will it take people to understand that those in public are the most corrupt one. what do we expect from the foreigners. How long will it take the people in public office to stop taking tax payer money for the Owen used, why can these people leave the pass? and help to build our country. If you came to Liberia to do business you will have to bribes to make your way. No Liberian will go to China or Lebanon and be able to set up a business but we open the door to ever one which is good but the tax that pay go into Mr John or David Pocket Minister need to grow up we are been taking for granted you was elected by the people so stop taking them for granted and do your Job.

We shouldn't blame Police receiving bribes because they have not been paid their salaries. The government is an institute where input and output are rotational.The police had been charged to protect and enforce government orders.In the later, that is if anyone caught violating government's law should be forwarded to the appropriate authority for persecution or be issued a receipt to pay fine in government's revenue.How will then government generate revenue if a police officer deemed it necessary to request for a bribe instead of issuing the violator a receipt? Let say if all ships entering the Free Port of Monrovia don't pay custom taxes how will the government function and pay their servants?

bro nothing will happen as long we are in bed with America, Britan, France and the west. To hell being number one corrupt country in the world is a pride. Let them go with their results, where they got it from?
