Personally, I define it as corruption when quid pro quo occurs, nice gifts, expensive dinners, etc.
In government work, in my field specifically, it's the inappropriate transfer of money (gifts, deals, dinners) that's reportable.
The limit for reporting in my field (for gifts) is 10 dollars.
- edoceo 10mo agoCan't demonstrate quid-pro-quo of the details are redacted.
- iscoelho 10mo agoNegotiating is difficult if you show your hand. It is arguably beneficial to both the state and Elon that the e-mails stay redacted. I agree it is unfortunate though.
- jeffbee 10mo agoSensitive negotiations like those should be handled by low-level bureaucrats with supervision, not by the damned Governor. Again, negotiating directly with a state governor is obviously corrupt no matter what the contents. This would have been instantly clear to any American back when we were an advanced nation.
- tb_technical 10mo agoCould you elaborate why an executive having sensitive conversations with a governor is corrupt? I'm having difficulty understanding this outlook. My industry has historically been extremely corrupt. This is why rules were defined for reportable expenses. Could you boil down your viewpoint into rules that can be applied in an organization, rather than a vibe test? I think I could better understand you, then.
