10 Most Corrupt Mayors

Top 10 Most Corrupt Mayors
Sometimes our leaders and elected officials cheat. When they do it it’s called corruption, fraud, conspiracy, theft of government funds, tax evasion, extortion, racketeering, and insurance fraud to name a few. Can you say corruption? The people on this list can. They heard it a bunch during their trials. Most people don't realize how much a bad mayor can cost a city. Real estate prices drop, lawyers have to be paid, insurance gets expensive, and then there is the stain a bad mayor leaves on a city. Nobody wants to open their new company in a town that doesn't have its crap together. If you don't have companies bringing in jobs you don't have people buying homes and having mortgages that bring in tax dollars. Next thing you know your cities businesses are mostly personal injury lawyers, bail bonds and companies that buy structured settlements.
We hear so much about government corruption these days, it almost sounds like its something new. But trust me, it's been going on since before the Romans.
It’s not just big-time politicians. Sometimes it’s local politicians. Like your mayor. You know the dude that gives people an oversized key to the city.
The United States has seen a bunch of cities that had mayors do time.
Some did a little time and others got a big ride. Like 20 years' worth.
Today we are looking at cities with mayors who went to prison and for how long.
Thanks for checking out the channel. I hope you enjoyed today's video. If there is a state, city or town you'd like us to do a video about let us know in the comment section.
If you enjoy these videos I would love to hear about it. These videos are made to help people who are thinking about relocating, looking for real estate, or just wanting to learn about the United States. I most of the time focus on the negative side of locations. If you want some happy positive information about a city, town or state, I would suggest looking up local mortgage and real estate companies or maybe the locations website. They are trying to sell you something so it will be nothing but sunshine and rainbows. They won't tell you about crime, poverty, bail bondsmen, or insurance you'll need because of natural disasters. I will. And I will try and make it entertaining.
