I forgot where did I read this but it was said by someone powerful and has high salary. I think he said this “reason” in a respond to why he deserve sure high salary.
And I was “PTTFFF, you’re right!”
This is more of an integrity problem than a “how much” problem. Do you really think bribery is just about money?

I don’t agree on that premise. It was just another form of saying that some people can do whatever they want because they are receiving a low salary.
LOL, yeah so true…
Now, that gives most of use the “right” to do whatever we want
the problem is greed; if you’re worried about bribes, make the punishment for accepting a bribe high enough that nobody wants to risk it…
The “punishment” is …
Very high salary, good enough, huh?
Greedy folks want a high salary and greedy folks are susceptible to bribery; ergo the premise is flawed. The punishment for accepting a bribe? You are fined five times the amount of the bribe, fired and possible jail time
I say all of the above!!
it would serve as a deterrent
Bribery is not just a matter of money but about poor character.
Yes, I think so too.
And as Carol said, gets you nowhere.
Will get you nowhere? No, Jail.
Carol’s comment is how I also believe. Great post!
Thank you for your comment, yes, I agree with Carol too.
Bribery will get you nowhere. Another saying I have always heard.
I’ve to agree on that or at least it won’t last you long enough. or the price to pay is huge.
Nice analysis. Maybe it was just a joke.
I really wish it was … but it really doesn’t seem like it…
