India. Once people figured out that they could get away with crap, they never stopped. Now it's an entrenched problem.

In the part of Africa I am from, building inspections are a money making scheme for councils. You get charged for every single stage of the building, the footing, the foundation, window level, roof, connecting to the sewer (if there is sewer in the area). I get the need for the inspections but like many things in life it is how they are implemented that makes the difference.
Seriously, just travel. I think its the easiest way to appreciate what human beings end up with without controls or even the threat of control/speedy justice.
do note that this in no way is meant to relieve your angst, just contextualize it and make it easier to bear.
