The actual top ten is:

Somalia
Afghanistan
Burma
Sudan
Iraq
Chad
Uzbekistan
Turkmenistan
Iran
Haiti

but how much of the corruption in Iraq, Sudan, Burma, Afghanistan, Somalia, Iran, Haiti are in relation to US businesses, military and foreign policies

I do believe that has been knox's point.

mine is simple, america is corrupt. just because it is not the most corrupt, does not some how vindicate its existing corruption. as an american, I am upset with this, and I do believe I have the option to want to get my own house in order, especially if it happens to fuck up my already dysfunctional neighbors around the world.

I don't honestly understand what all the backlash is about, corruption and violence and poverty is the same thing regardless of degrees..
