Not for lack of trying, the corruption of the US spreads wherever it can. When a large tree is dying, it rots from the centre of the trunk first. The rot at the core of capitalism started where the most power resides, and that's why the US is such a horror show. You aren't immune from it, it just hasn't rotted as badly where you are.
