Over There, You Are Evil ... Over Here, Okie Dokie

In the Wall Street Journal I read where a corporation is in trouble with the U.S. Justice Department and the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission about paying bribe money to foreign officials in order to do business in Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe.

This investigation has been going on since 2004 but will now be called to a halt because the corporation has agreed to pay $185,000,000 to our government.

I know those people up there in government are smarter than little ole me but does this not seem like they are paying a bribe in order to call a halt to a bribery investigation?

Yea, I know I am wrong ... Or am I?

Would I kid u?
