The US system of govt. is NOT inherently corrupt.  It's an attempt at
creating a system in which the greatest amount of freedom is possible
while still maintaining social order.  Because of the flexibility and
freedom inherent in the system, it is, however, susceptible to abuse.  If
you experience any corruption, don't vent it towards the 'system' but the
people who've been VOTED into power to run it.  Sure, not all those people
were voted into positions of power.  However, the ones who weren't were
placed there by people who were.  

Sure, not all people within the system are corrupt.  It would be assinine
to make such broad assumptions.  However, a whole body does not have to be
cancerous to kill a person.

It might be a bit nit-picky, but I like to keep the 'system' seperate from
its administrators.  The Constitution was drafted with the primary motive
of creating a fair, unrepressive system in which to live under.  Any
failings with it are more likely due to its administrators then its mechanics.
