it is kinda of a sham when EU countries go around and tell less developed countries to "curb their corruption", while their darling corporates are a major contribution to global corruption, and that has been allowed for so long.

I especially could not stand the EU vs. Microsoft case where those jackasses heaped on tons of fines to basically siphon a few billion dollars away from a US corporation.

As much as I know MS has their issues with anti-trust, boy did that piss me off.

Those guys should be in jail, not paying fines. It's too bad it took a foreign country to even levy a fine.
