The Culture of Corruption Laid Bare

Randy "Duke" Cunningham actually had a pricing list for bribes:

The card shows an escalating scale for bribes, starting at $140,000 and a luxury yacht for a $16 million Defense Department contract. Each additional $1 million in contract value required a $50,000 bribe.

The rate dropped to $25,000 per additional million once the contract went above $20 million.

At one point Cunningham was living on a yacht named after him, "The Dukester," docked near Capitol Hill, courtesy of a defense company president.

I can't add much to that except to say that he's not the last, I'm sure..
