There are various reasons America may be perceived as corrupt, such as influence of money in politics, lack of transparency, and weak enforcement of regulations. Addressing corruption requires a multi-faceted approach involving accountability, prevention measures, and strengthening of institutions.

∙ 9y agoInstead of having short, publicly-funded political campaigns with limited and/or free advertising (as a number of Western European countries do), the US has long political campaigns in which candidates are dunned big bucks for advertising. They are therefore forced to spend much of their time fundraising, which is to say, seeking bribes. All American politicians are basically on the take, though many are honorable people.
