Should people in the West start calling things their names? Public sector corruption, not unlike at all what once plagued Eastern European countries. I see the problem as very similar in nature, despite dramatically different origins.
The difference I see though, is that much of Eastern Europe hardcore criminalized things which would not amount to a crime at all in Western legal systems, and not pass the extreme standards of proof.
1. Look for nepotism in appointments
2. Illogical high profile job competitions
3. Oversized, omnibus projects
4. Strange demands in procurement tenders, or one intentionally made noncompetitive
5. Income beyond known means of supervising officials
6. Strange project structuring, and legal acrobatics
7. Illogical financing arrangements
8. Long periods of doing nothing to extract more fees
9. Unreasonable fees of intermediaries and third parties
