You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

In my opinion the most corrupt leader still in office today is Pres. Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, which impoverished his country. The value of their money has become so low that event their currency of 1 billion can buy only a loaf of bread.

The Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington has a project site dubbed "CREW's Most Corrupt", which profiles the 15 most corrupt (in their view) members of congress. They update this report annually.
CREW also has a number of other reports and projects related to the issue of government and corporate corruption. Check out their website for a full list.

There are quite a few contestants, but to me, Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi tops the list. Not just because he is corrupt, but mostly because he has shown to be able to corrupt a democratic country beyond recognition, AND get re-elected over and over again.
While Bugabe and other leaders are clearly wrong, and only stay in power because they organize fake elections, Mr Berlusconi has been extremely cunning in making his government 'legitimate'.
As far as I know, he is the only polititian, who has been able to stay in power, with support of the voters, with legal means (even though he has bent the rules on many occasions to ensure no legal action would be taken against him, even at the cost of letting thousands of other criminals off the hook.)

Our constitution was set in place to limit government. Any senator or representative who wants to expand government should be considered corrupt.
Think about the reasons to expand government.... is there any financial reason to expand government? Yes.
Is there any financial reason to limit government? Yes - both answers are correct, but is depends if your point of view is of a government official or taxpayer!
Government IS the problem - not the solution!

All the answers above are true except they have a leader, leader of the "free world" Mr. Obama.

Would you care to provide some arguments to support your 'nomination'?

I did look at the link and even if all the stuff they mention in their statements is true it would in no way qualify as the "Most Corrupt" That would just be misleading to say or infer at all.

I f everything this link portrays is held in the worst possible light it would accurately portray someone as corrupt as a Girl Scout who cut a deal with her Grandma on the price of cookies.
