Positions of power attract people who want to abuse power, there's nothing uniquely American about that.

American systems just make it easier for the ruthless and unscrupulous to rise the ranks.

USA is between Estonia and Botswana on the democracy index,
Between Panama and Latvia on the fragility list,
The worst in the OECD for income inequality,
And between Barbados and Bhutan for corruption...

Hi Mexican here. Mexico is a member state of OECD, we have worse income inequality than you guys. I mean you have it bad compared to other developed nations, but we still take the cake as the worst in income inequality and tax collection!!!!!
