Bribery isn't control. It's just bribery.

Bribery isn't control. It's just bribery.
Pretending it is impossible to get a semi-democratic government to work for the people instead of just very difficult is defeatism. In fact, getting people to believe "It's hopeless" is a big part of the way bad governments maintain control of people, like in Russia or in the USA
Direct or indirect, it doesn't matter. It is a strong form of control.
