Corruption in work places you get in Europe, Asia or US/Canada. There are many layers of corruption happening all over the world and everyone has different tolerance level while playing the game in this ponzi fiat scheme to come by. LATAM is under scrutiny of the imperialist geopolitics of US and broader global north since "forever", so how can you say that a nation, population of real sovereign region, is unable to deal with their own social organization when they didn't have that luxury since being "sovereign"? Just to mention the US imposed "War on Drugs" was a tool to control and destroy LATAM communities and even their own targeted communities within US.
