This could be an interesting thing if people post the counties they have seen where the corruption is ridiculous, where local politicians that have control of county boards find a multitude of ways to steal millions in kickbacks and good old boy inflated contracts.
What made me think of this was when I was looking at where a fund raiser was supposed to be held in New Jersey, and Toms River in Ocean County came up. The money being ripped off in this county is absurd. There is a movement to intervene in a ridiculous beach sand replacement that is costing five million a year. They are buying inland inferior sand at ridiculous prices and trucking it to the beach. Those against this correctly argue that the higher quality real sand should be dredged from the bay (which needs dredging anyway) at a much lower cost.
I'd get a kick out of seeing counties nobody except locals or having heard about a particularly ridiculous scandal. Michigan had a good one where a state manager was appointed to a city that owned a desirable park property worth billions to developers, solution appoint a manager and sell it out from under the city for a tiny fraction of it's worth.
Don't worry about political bias, just the counties that are completely out of control. Detroit was one but their mayor went to jail for ripping millions.
