Reply to comment by daveclampart in In honour of FIFA, who are absolutely not corrupt bastards by daveclampart

Dunno maybe I have a different idea of corruption. The reason there IS a WC, is because of money, I was fairly certain most people understood this. They do this, to make money, get paid, and to me that isn't corruption. They dont do it for fun, they don't do it to highlite human social issues, political reform, or to set an example of a perfectly random system. Just my quick take, to suggest it's corrupt is as silly as saying they should do it for free.

Is corruption when you pay money under the table to FIFA executive to vote for you even though you are the worse candidate (US and UK were clearly favourites). That’s FIFA’s fault, Qatar did anything to win and fifa let them. This World cup is like hosting a winter olimpics in Thailand. No history or tradition of the sport and no climate to play it.

I think you need to look at the definition of "under the table", there is no table, there is no over or under, or disclosed. I think you are just dense, intentionally, to harp about people making money off of you.
